Abstract
The paper compares liquid limit values obtained by the Vasiliev and Casagrande apparatus in line with BDS 648:1984 and BDS EN ISO/ TS 17892–12:2018, on the basis of testing 25 silty loess samples. The results indicated that compared with the Vasiliev apparatus, the Casagrande apparatus gives a higher liquid limit. An equation allowing conversion of the liquid limit obtained by the Vasiliev cone penetrometer to the liquid limit by the Casagrande apparatus has been developed.
