What are the standard plastic limit/liquid
limit/plasticityindex for differrent type of soils?

Answer Posted / Narendra Pratap Singh

The Plastic Limit, Liquid Limit, and Plasticity Index are key properties of soil that help determine its behavior under load. The Plastic Limit (PL) is the moisture content at which a soil begins to exhibit plastic flow. The Liquid Limit (LL) is the maximum moisture content at which the soil behaves like a liquid. The Plasticity Index (PI) is the difference between the LL and the PL. Different types of soils have different values for these properties, which can be found in soil engineering textbooks or by conducting laboratory tests.
