What is Identifying Potentially Expansive Soils about?
This report evaluates 17 published techniques for identifying and classifying potentially expansive soils. Laboratory testing was conducted on soils from 20 sites, including measurements of liquid limit, plasticity index, shrinkage properties, moisture suction, and overburden swell tests. Statistical analysis found that liquid limit and plasticity index were the best indicators of potential swell. A new classification system is proposed using liquid limit, plasticity index, and natural soil suction to bette
