Table 1: liquid limit test
Can no. #6 #14 #4
Mass of can 20.91 20.66 20.47
Mass of can + moist soil 34.98 36.63 35.39
Mass of can + dry soil 31.09 32.39 31.60
Moisture content w % 38.21 36.14 34.05
Number of blows, N 19.00 24.00 34.00

From Figure 1, Liquid limit LL = 36.25

Flow index F1 =
Table 2: Plastic Limit Determination
Can no. #5 #1
Mass of Can 15.52 15.52
Mass of Wet Soil & Can 20.90 19.53
Mass of Dry Soil & Can 20.16 18.99
PL 15.95 15.56
Average Plastic Limit 15.76

PI = LL – PL = 36.25 – 15.76 = 20.49 %

Abstract:-The particle size analysis of particles smaller that No. 200 sieve can’t be possible by sieve analysis. For this wet mechanical analysis is required. This alalysis is based on sedimentation principal of stokes’s law.
Introduction: A number of methods have been proposed and numerous used for determining the grain distribution Curve of fined grained materials on Stokes’s sedimentation principal but among all the amount of sedimentation per unit volume at a given point in a sedimentation tube is the popular...
