The problem of the bearing capacity of the subgrade is one of the most important thingsconsidered in a planning and work of a civil building construction. This matterbecause the soil functions as a medium that withstands the load or action of the constructionbuilt on it. Changes in weather and temperature in the field are factors that makeunstable ground. Many stabilizations have been carried out using cement soil, howeverrequires no small cost and also the results of the implementation of the soil stabilizationrelatively short-lived. Therefore, this research was conducted using a mixture ofsirtu with mixed variations of 15%, 20% and 30%. More variety of mixThe added sirtu causes the water content to decrease which will make the power value decreasethe bearing capacity of the soil increases, the value of the plastic limit increases, while the value of the liquid limit and indexthe plasticity of the soil decreases.

The undrained shear strength of remolded soils is of concern in certain geotechnical engineering applications. Several methods for determining this parameter exist, including the laboratory vane test. This study proposes a new method to estimate the undrained shear strength, particularly at the plastic and liquid limits. For 30 inorganic soil samples of different plasticity levels, we determined the Atterberg limits, then performed a series of reverse extrusion tests at different water contents. The plastic and liquid limits are derived from the linear relationship between the logarithm of the extrusion pressure and water content. The tests show that the average undrained shear strength determined from the extrusion pressures at the plastic limit is about 180 kPa, whereas the average undrained shear strength at the liquid limit is 2.3 kPa. We show that the undrained shear strength of remolded soils at any water content can be estimated from the Atterberg limits alone. Although the laboratory vane test provides a reasonable undrained shear strength value at the plastic limit, it overestimates the undrained shear strength at the liquid limit and thus, care must be taken when the laboratory vane test is used to determine undrained shear strengths at water contents near the liquid limit.

Effect of glass fines and cement as a composite mixture on the geotechnical properties of a poor lateritic soil obtained from a borrow pit at Aroje, Ogbomoso, Nigeria was investigated as a reuse method of managing wasted glass. Glass fines up to 12% at intervals of 4% by mass of the soil sample were added to the lateritic soil stabilized with cement of 0, 2, 4, and 6% by mass of the soil sample. Sieve analysis, Atterberg limit, British Standard (BS) Compaction, California Bearing Ratio (CBR) and Unconfined Compressive Strength (UCS) tests were conducted on the stabilized soil specimens. Results showed that Liquid Limit (LL), Plastic Limit (PL) and Plasticity Index (PI) decreased while compaction and UCS of the lateritic soil increased from 0 to 8% addition of glass fines. The CBR of the soil increased continuously from 0 to 12% glass contents. However, addition of cement increased the LL and PI while it decreased the PL between 0 and 4% but increased beyond this range. The compaction, UCS and CBR of the stabilized soil increased significantly with increasing cement content. Hence, the soil can be stabilized with the addition of 8% glass fines and 6% cement content to be used as improved subgrade material for construction of light trafficked pavement.

Atterberg limit tests were preformed on diesel oil contaminated soil and crude oil contaminated soil. The results show that Atterberg limits reduced with increasing of diesel oil content. When crude oil content changed from 0 to 8%, it has little effect on Atterberg limits. However, it rose from 8% to 16%, plastic limit slightly decreased, but liquid limit increased remarkably. A "pseudo-viscosity" caused by crude oil is the key factor for this phenomenon.

A linear logarithm–logarithm model for the fall cone penetration depth versus water content relationship (flow curve) has been developed based on the results of an experimental study using the British fall cone apparatus. The fall cone flow curve is expressed by a simple equation with parameters m and c, which represent the slope of the flow curve and the water content at a penetration depth of 1 mm, respectively. For a soil, the flow curve can be determined by applying a linear regression analysis to at least four data points with penetration depths approximately evenly distributed between 25 and 3 mm. It is shown in this paper that both the liquid limit and the plastic limit determined from the linear logarithm–logarithm flow curve are in close agreement with those determined from conventional methods. A one-point method for determination of the liquid limit is developed from the model and is verified by applying statistical analysis to a large volume of experimental data.Key words: fall cone, laboratory tests, consistency limits, clays.

Fall cone tests were conducted to evaluate the consistency variations of clay soils treated with six types of biopolymers, e.g. carrageenan kappa gum (KG), locust bean gum (BG), xanthan gum (XG), agar gum (AG), guar gum (GG) and sodium alginate (SA) at various concentrations (e.g. between 0.1% to 5% biopolymer to soil mass ratio). The dependences of shear viscosity on water content, and undrained shear strength on water content were established. The results indicated that KG and SA increased the liquid limit (LL) of treated soils after the biopolymer content exceeded a certain limit (e.g. 0.5%), BG and GG contributed to a peak point in LL at biopolymer concentration of 1% to 2%, while XG and AG almost did not change the LL at all. The plastic limit (PL) was about 25% to 50% of the LL, leading to a trend of plasticity index (PI) similar to liquid limit. In order to further simplify the testing procedure and get the Atterberg limits for biopolymer-treated soil, one-point method was adopted.

Among the most commonly specified tests in the geotechnical engineering industry, the liquid limit and plastic limit tests are principally used for (i) deducing useful design parameter values from existing correlations with these consistency limits and (ii) for classifying fine-grained soils, typically employing the Casagrande-style plasticity chart. This updated state-of-the-art review paper gives a comprehensive presentation of salient latest research and understanding of soil consistency limits determinations/measurement, elaborating concisely on the many standardized and proposed experimental testing approaches, their various fundamental aspects and possibly pitfalls, as well as some very recent alternative proposals for consistency limits determinations. Specific attention is given to fall cone testing methods advocated (but totally unsuitable) for plastic limit determination; that is, the water content at the plastic–brittle transition point, as defined using the hand rolling of threads method. A framework (utilizing strength-based fall cone-derived parameters) appropriate for correlating shear strength variation with water content over the conventional plastic range is presented. This paper then describes two new fine-grained soil classification system advancements (charts) that do not rely on the thread-rolling plastic limit test, known to have high operator variability, and concludes by discussing alternative and emerging proposals for consistency limits determinations and fine-grained soil classification.
