A fine grained soil has liquid limit of 60 and plastic limit of 20. As per the plasticity chart, according to IS classification, the soil is represented by the letter symbols
-
- CL
- CI
- CH
- CL-ML
Correct Option: C
PI = wL – wP.
= 60 – 20 = 40
∵ PO > 17 it is clayey soil
∵ wL > 50 it is highly plastic.
∴ soil is CH.
