1、ASTMD431898中英文Standard Test Methods for Liquid Limit, Plastic Limit, and Plasticity Index of Soils1. Scope 适用范围1.1 These test methods cover the determination of the liquid limit, plastic limit, and the plasticity index of soils as defined in Section 3 on Terminology.1.1 本试验方法包括术语第3节定义的液限、塑限和塑性指数的测定。

2、1.2 Two methods for preparing test specimens are provided as follows: Wet preparation method, as described in 10.1. Dry preparation method, as described in 10.2. The method to be used shall be specified by the requesting authority. If no method is specified, use the wet preparation method.1.2 试样准备的两

3、种方法如下：湿法制备，详见10.1。干法制备，详见10.2。所采用的方法按有关权威指定。如没有指定试验方法，采用湿法备样。1.2.1 The liquid and plastic limits of many soils that have been allowed to dry before testing may be considerably different from values obtained on non-dried samples. If the liquid and plastic limits of soils are used to correlate or esti

4、mate the engineering behavior of soils in their natural moist state, samples should not be permitted to dry before testing unless data on dried samples are specifically desired.1.2.1 许多土用干法制备与湿法制备测定出来的液、塑限结果有显著不同。如果土的液塑限要与土的天然湿度状态的工程性态一起关联或评估，除非需要特定的干法制备数据，否则不允许试验前烘干式样。1.3 Two methods for determinin

5、g the liquid limit are provided as follows: Method A, Multipoint test as described in Sections 11 and 12. Method B, One-point test as described in Sections 13 and 14. The method to be used shall be specified by the requesting authority. If no method is specified, use Method A.1.3 测定液限提供了如下两种方法：方法A，1

6、1和12节讲述的多点测试法。方法B，13和14节讲述的一点测试法。采用何种方法一般由有关的权威指定。如未指定特别的方法，采用方法A。1.3.1 The multipoint liquid limit method is generally more precise than the one-point method. It is recommended that the multipoint method be used in cases where test results may be subject to dispute, or where greater precision is re

7、quired.1.3.1 多点液限法通常比一点法更精确。试验结果有争论或要求更精确的情况下，推荐采用多点测试法。1.3.2 Because the one-point method requires the operator to judge when the test specimen is approximately at its liquid limit, it is particularly not recommended for use by inexperienced operators.1.3.2 因为一点法当试样接近液限的时候要靠操作者判断，所以对不熟练的操作者不推荐使用它。1

8、.3.3 The correlation on which the calculations of the one-point method are based may not be valid for certain soils, such as organic soils or soils from a marine environment. It is strongly recommended that the liquid limit of these soils be determined by the multipoint method.1.3.3 基于一点法计算的相关性对某些土壤

9、可能是无效的，比如有机质土和海滨土。对这类土强烈推荐使用多点法测试。1.4 The plastic limit test is performed on material prepared for the liquid limit test.1.4 塑限试验用准备好用作塑限试验的材料进行试验。1.5 The liquid limit and plastic limit of soils (along with the shrinkage limit) are often collectively referred to as the Atterberg limits. These limits

10、 distinguished the boundaries of the several consistency states of plastic soils.1.5 液塑限（连同缩限）经常共同归诸于阿太堡限。这些界限区别塑性土的几种稠度状态的边界。1.6 The composition and concentration of soluble salts in a soil affect the values of the liquid and plastic limits as well as the water content values of soils (see Method D

11、 2216). Special consideration should therefore be given to soils from a marine environment or other sources where high soluble salt concentrations may be present. The degree to which the salts present in these soils are diluted or concentrated must be given careful consideration.1.6 可溶解盐的合成物和浓缩影响液塑限

12、的值，同时也会影响土的水分含量（见方法D 2216）。因此对海滨土或其它含高可容盐聚合物的土应专门考虑。这些土可溶盐被冲淡或浓缩的程度必须仔细考虑。1.7 The methods described herein are performed only on that portion of a soil that passes the 425-m (No. 40) sieve. Therefore, the relative contribution of this portion of the soil to the properties of the sample as a whole mu

13、st be considered when using these tests to evaluate properties of a soil.1.7 在这里描述的方法是用通过0.425毫米筛的土做试验的。因此，当用这些试验评估土的特性时，试样作为一个整体与这部分土的相对作用必须加以考虑。1.8 The values stated in acceptable metric units are to be regarded as the standard, except as noted below. The values given in parentheses are for inform

14、ation only.1.8 按照米制单位表达的值被视为标准，要么在加以脚注。圆括号里的数字只是一种信息。1.8.1 The standard units for the resilience tester covered in Annex A1 are inch-pound, not metric. The metric values given are for information only.1.8.1包含在附录A1里对继承用法试验人员的标准单位是英制而不是米制的。米制单位仅供对照。1.9 This standard does not purport to address all of
