Even though metal fatigue has been studied for almost 160 years, many problems remain unsolved. The number of blows for the groove to close is recorded. The plasticity index (PI) is a measure of the plasticity of a soil. It is calculated as CI = (LL-W)/(LL-PL), where W is the existing water content. zuNEpnX_'=U@xt)cO7Y It shows the size of the range of the moisture contents at which the soil remains plastic. The variation of moisture content and Atterberg limit with organic matter content indicates that OC = 7.5% may be the limit value for the different forms of organic matter in the clay. 427 0 obj <>

The tests were conducted at normal stress ranging from 0.1 to 3.5 kg/sq.cm and values of residual friction angle were plotted against plasticity index. Soils with a high PI tend to be clay, those with a lower PI tend to be silt, and those with a PI of 0 (non-plastic) tend to have little or no silt or clay.

Shear strength is a term used in soil mechanics to describe the magnitude of the shear stress that a soil can sustain.
