: Discussion: sensitivity of clays and the c/p ratio in normally consolidated clays. Atterberg's original liquid limit test involved mixing a pat of clay in a round-bottomed porcelain bowl of 1012cm diameter. I have some triaxial testing done but the results are a bit strange so want to know how do can i compare them with Atterberg Limits?? Grid size 100*100 A) F - Y =20 o. <>

The tests were conducted at normal stress ranging from 0.1 to 3.5 kg/sq.cm and values of residual friction angle were plotted against plasticity index. Furthermore, it is seen that the cohesion intercept for normally consolidated clays is zero both in the terms of total and effective stress. The PI is the difference between the liquid limit and the plastic limit (PI = LL-PL). Its definition is derived from the Mohr-Coulomb failure criterion and it is used to describe the friction shear resistance of soils together with the normal effective stress.Soil friction angle is a shear strength parameter of soils.

We have received your request and will respond promptly. Soil friction angle is a shear strength parameter of soils. During undrained shear, if the particles are surrounded by a nearly incompressible fluid such as water, then the density of the particles cannot change without drainage, but the water pressure and effective stress will change.

The moisture content at which it takes 25 drops of the cup to cause the groove to close over a distance of 12.7 millimetres (0.50in) is defined as the liquid limit.

If the sample length to diameter ratio was greater or less than 2, ASTM recommends a correction factor that is applied to theUCSvalue determined from testing. The plasticity index (PI) is a measure of the plasticity of a soil. The unconfined compressive strength of the specimen is calculated by dividing the maximum load at failure by the sample cross-sectional area: \[\ \sigma_{\mathrm{c}}=\frac{\mathrm{F}}{\mathrm{A}}\tag{2-29}\].
