Series: TO-045
Shrinkage Limit
Features
The shrinkage limit in soil refers to the upper limit of moisture content in soil after which further reduction of moisture does not cause any reduction in volume. In this phenomenon the water content in fine grained soil is reduced below the plastic limit leading to shrinkage of the soil mass until it achieves its shrinkage limit.
