This Standard sets out a method for the determination of the cone liquid limit of a soil usinga cone penetrometer. The definition of liquid limit inherent in this method is not the sameas that in the method using the Casagrande apparatus (AS 1289.3.1.1) although the valuescan be numerically similar.NOTE: The potential difference in values between the standard method for liquid limit(AS 1289.3.1.1) and the cone liquid limit may be of great significance in testing materials forcompliance with specifications. In such cases the two methods should not be regarded asinterchangeable.
