Atterberg Test (Liquid and Plastic Limits; Plasticity Index)

The Atterberg test was developed by Albert Atterberg and Arthur Casagrande. It is used to determine the Liquid Limit (when soil behaves as a liquid) and Plastic Limit (when soil is no longer cohesive); the difference between these two is known as the Plasticity Index.
While this video is not 100% true conformance to ASTM, it demonstrates the techniques and methods used, and should give a basic understanding of what the test is and how it works.
ASTM D4318

IF YOU PREPARE A SEED BED IN SOIL
AND IT DRIES /NOT RAINED ON FOR 24 HOURS
IT WILL NEVER CAP OR GO MUSHY.
IF IT RAINS WITHIN 24 HOURS SOIL WILL GO MUSHY AND THEN CAP

Y'all need some new cups for your samples.
Makes mine look like fine China lol.

u shouldn't dry specimen by adding soil

[@geotechnicallabvideos2720]

If you stir it thoroughly, and the clay is silty and/or of low-plasticity, the change in result is negligible.
