Description

Determining the shrinkage limit using the mercury or wax method is time-consuming and error-prone. This paper presents a model that uses a British cone flow index to compute the shrinkage limit of the soil. The model was developed based on the analysis of 186 Atterberg limits test results from the literature leading to the formulation of an equation for computing the shrinkage limit of the soil using the British fall cone flow index.
