Abstract | This research is studied about the effects of temperatures and salt contents on liquid limit of
clayey soils. The clayey soils are collected from the geotechnical engineering lab (GTE) at
the Asian Institute of Technology. The tests were conducted with the collected clayey soils
at three states of temperatures: room temperature; 50C, 70C and 105C and four different
concentrations of salt: 10g/L, 20g/L, 30g/L and 40g/L of salt solution. Casagrande Cup
(American Standard) and Fall Cone test (British Standard) are used to determine the liquid
limit in this research. The results indicated that the liquid limit of the collected clayey soils
decrease with increase in temperature and increase in salt contents in both methods. It can
also be concluded that the liquid limit from Casagrande cup gave 4 percent higher values
than that by Fall Cone Test. |
