Fall cone tests considering water content, cone penetration index, and plasticity angle of fine-grained soils

This paper analyzed the consistency of some parameters of soils in the literature and experimental results from fall cone test and its application to soil plasticity classification. Over 500 data from both literatures and experiments using fall cone and Casagrande methods were compiled to assess the...
