Atterberg Limits Data Template: Liquid Limit Test (Multipoint Liquid Limit - Method A)

This document contains the results of Atterberg limits tests on a soil sample. The tests include a multi-point liquid limit test with 5 trials that yielded a liquid limit of 68%. A plastic limit test with 2 groups of 4 trials each yielded a plastic limit of 29%. The plasticity index was calculated to be 40%, which is the difference between the liquid and plastic limits. Graphs of water content versus log of number of drops and water content versus log of number of drops were also included.
