Impact of soil composition on fall cone test results
Answers
Explanation:
➡️ The cone penetrometer method is being increasingly used for the determination of the liquid limit of cohesive soils. The same method can be used to determine the plastic limit according to the known relationship between soil moisture content and depth of cone penetration. This relationship is non-linear, yet becomes linear on a log–log scale resulting in a simple method of determination of liquid limit and plastic limit values.
