The liquid limit, defined as the moisture content at
which the soil passes from the plastic state to the liquid state, is very
helpful in the classification of the potential properties of the soil
material. The liquid limit gives a measure of the shearing resistance which
a soil has when mixed with water. Casagrande Method or Cone Penetrometer
Method can determine the liquid limit of soil.
