Introduction:

• Casagrande method in mechanical form is known as Liquid Limit Method and has been in use for soil mechanics for a number of years.
• The Liquid Limit data of soils is useful to correlate mechanical properties of soil, such as compressibility and lower shear strength.
• Liquid limit is the water content at which soil passes from zero strength to an infinitesimal strength, hence the true value of liquid limit cannot be determined.
• For determination purpose liquid limit is that water content at which a part of soil, cut by a groove of standard dimensions, will flow together for a distance of 1.25 cm under an impact of 25 blows in a standard liquid limit apparatus.
• The soil at the water content has some strength which is about 0.17 N/cm. sq. (17gms/sq.cm.)
• At this water content soil just passes from liquid state to plastic state.
