The documents provide the results of Atterberg limit tests conducted on soil samples from construction projects at Ambikapur Medical College in Chhattisgarh, India. Three samples of moorum soil were collected from different locations and tested for liquid limit and plastic limit. The liquid limits ranged from 31.5% to 31.8% while the plastic limits were approximately 18.95%. The plasticity index was calculated to be 12.55%, 12.95%, and 19.51% respectively for each sample based on the difference between its liquid and plastic limits.

2. In case of sandy soil PL should be determined first, When PL can not be determined, The
PI should be reported as Non-Plastic (NP)
3. When the plastic limit is equal to or greater than the liquid limit, The PI shall be reported as zero
