INVESTIGATIONS INTO INFLUENCE OF EXCHANGEABLE CATIONS CONCENTRATION AND EXTERNAL SURFACE AREA ON LIQUID LIMIT OF CLAYEY SOILS
Journal Title: Biuletyn Państwowego Instytutu Geologicznego - Year 2011, Vol 446, Issue 446
Abstract
The liquid limit, the external surface area, the concentration of exchangeable cations and the cation exchange capacity of fourteen clayey soils were determined. The correlation of the liquid limit with external surface area and exchangeable cations concentration was the aim of this research. The results of this study point to signifi cant statistical relationship between these three properties. This relationship indicates that interparticle forces have a prominent role in determining liquid limit of clayey soils.

INFILTRATION COEFFICIENT OF A PERMIAN AND CARBONIFEROUS WEATHERED ZONE AND QUATERNARY DEPOSITS IN THE BOGUSZÓW-GORCE REGION (MIDDLE SUDETES)
In the north part of the Intra-Sudetic Basin area, the infiltration coefficient was measured by the Porschet method. Quaternary deposits and a Permian and Carboniferous weathered zone were examined. The total of 20 measu...
Hydrogeology study of the western part of the Polish Carpathians
Hydrogeology of the western part of the Polish Carpathians is complicated due to large differences in morphology, climate and geology. Morphology and climate are related to altitudes from [i]ca[/i]. 300 m a.s.l. at the n...
