Abstract
Tests were made on three different soils, using controlled amounts of Portland cement and water. All tests were made using a standard liquid limit device or a six-inch mold. The variables were amounts of Portland cement, degree and thoroughness of mixing, moisture content, curing and compaction of samples. The recommended procedures for performing the Plastic Limits Test, Liquid Limits Test and the California Bearing Ratio Test were followed with very few exceptions. All values obtained from testing are entered in the report and no retesting was done.
