The overall goal of this new procedure is to determine the plastic limit in soils by measuring bending deformations. The traditional thread-rolling method is highly influenced by the skill of the laboratory operators, so an alternative approach is

The traditional standardized test for determining the plastic limit in soils is performed by hand, and the result varies depending on the operator. An alternative method based on bending measurements is presented in this study. This allows the plastic limit to be obtained with a clear and objective criterion.
