Calculation method

Calculation method

Liquid limit at 25 blows (%)

Least-squares water content versus log10(blows); liquid limit is predicted water content at 25 blows.

Flow index (% per log10 blow)

Least-squares water content versus log10(blows); liquid limit is predicted water content at 25 blows.

Regression residuals (JSON)

Least-squares water content versus log10(blows); liquid limit is predicted water content at 25 blows.

Symbols and units

Blow counts (count)
b
Water contents (%)

Use the units shown. A list keeps the order in which you enter its values. The symbol ^ means “raised to the power of”.

Assumptions & limits

Assumptions & limits

  • User-supplied measurements and assumptions; Least-squares water content versus log10(blows); liquid limit is predicted water content at 25 blows. Supported limits: Finite numeric values bounded to 1e9 magnitude; lists and tables contain 1–100 records unless a stricter bound is stated. Inputs use the units shown. Lists explicitly paired by a method must have matching lengths; independent polynomial coefficient vectors may differ. Respect stated physical, interpolation, policy and computational domain limits.
