Consistency limits and soil plasticity are the basic parameters that represent the physical properties of fine-grained soils and provide important information about their engineering properties, such as the compressibility and shear strength. These parameters are the standard input for all soil investigation programs, so their correct …

Clay, medium plasticity: 40–50: 18–25: 16–28: Clay, high plasticity: 60–85: 20–35: 35–55: The plasticity of clays depends not only on the water content but also substantially on the content and nature of the clay minerals, as listed in Table 9.3. That is why the plasticity can be used to estimate not only the content but also the ...

This research aims to develop simple models to estimate the unconfined compressive strength, modulus of elasticity, and plastic strain of low-plasticity clays using liquid limit, plasticity index, optimum moisture content, and maximum dry density, which are simple properties that could be easily found using simple laboratory tests. To …

Usually plasticity index depends on the amount of clay present in the soil. A high value of PI indicates an excess of clay in the soil and that results in greater plasticity of that soil. If soil's plasticity index is small that shows soil is plastic for …

the true clay-mineral content of some of these materials may be less than that of other clay resources. The under-clays of the coal fi elds are next in plasticity, followed by shales. Clays or shales that are high in siliceous or sandy material have lower plasticities. Some products, like brick, require a material with low to medium plasticity.

This study presents the experimental results on the use of cement in modification and stabilization of medium plastic clays. Samples of lean clay were mixed with Portland cement in percentages of 5 and 10 % by dry weight of the soils that had water contents of 40 and 60 %. The curing time of the samples varied between 7 and 28 days. …

Practising engineers designing civil engineering works on soft clay usually assume that laboratory tests on normal piston tube sampling will at worst give conservative design parameters. Indeed most research into sampling disturbance effects on soft clays has proven that use of poor-quality tube samplers ultimately leads to lower undrained …

Plasticity and the amount of clays present in the soil are related to each other in a way that properties and behaviour of clays are influenced by presence of certain clay minerals. The thickness of the oriented water around a clay particle is dependent on type of clay mineral. Higher the amount of water adsorbing minerals present in the soil ...
