Liquidity Index of Soil Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Liquidity Index of Soil?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

I l = \frac{w - W p}{I p}

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

I l = \frac{1.79 - 1.2}{1.2}

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

I l = \frac{1.79 - 1.2}{1.2}

Next Step Evaluate

∴

I l = 0.491666666666667

LAST Step Rounding Answer

∴

I l = 0.4917

Go Plasticity Index of Soil

I p = W l - W p

Go Plastic Limit of Soil given Plasticity Index

W p = W l - I p

Go Liquid Limit of Soil given Plasticity Index

W l = I p + W p

Go Plasticity Index of Soil given Liquidity Index

I p = \frac{w - W p}{I l}

How to Evaluate Liquidity Index of Soil?

Liquidity Index of Soil evaluator uses Liquidity Index = (Water Content of Soil-Plastic Limit)/Plasticity Index to evaluate the Liquidity Index, The Liquidity Index of Soil formula is defined as as a ratio of difference between natural water content, plastic limit, and liquid limit. Liquidity Index is denoted by I_l symbol.

How to evaluate Liquidity Index of Soil using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Liquidity Index of Soil, enter Water Content of Soil (w), Plastic Limit (W_p) & Plasticity Index (I_p) and hit the calculate button.

FAQs on Liquidity Index of Soil

What is the formula to find Liquidity Index of Soil?

The formula of Liquidity Index of Soil is expressed as Liquidity Index = (Water Content of Soil-Plastic Limit)/Plasticity Index. Here is an example- 0.491667 = (1.79-1.2)/1.2.

How to calculate Liquidity Index of Soil?
