Advanced Atterberg Limits Devices for Soil Consistency Testing

Explore industry-leading solutions for defining the plastic and liquid limits of soils in construction, agriculture, and geotechnical applications.

Precision Soil Testing with Atterberg Limits Methods

Atterberg Limits testing plays a critical role in soil classification by determining the plasticity and moisture boundaries of fine-grained soils. Widely used in construction, agriculture, and geotechnical engineering, this testing method provides insight into the behavior of soil under varying moisture conditions. With precise measurement of liquid limit, plastic limit, and shrinkage limit, professionals can evaluate the suitability of soils for various structures and foundations.

Soil Ground Testing supports engineers, researchers, and contractors with high-performance Atterberg Limits devices that streamline testing and improve reliability. We serve clients across North America as a trusted B2B provider, delivering innovative products and systems backed by expert support and continuous product development. Headquartered in Los

Angeles, CA, our company is committed to reliability, precision, and customer satisfaction.

Case Studies

California, USA

A California-based construction firm required accurate Atterberg Limit testing to assess the soil consistency for a large freeway interchange project. After implementing our liquid and plastic limit testing sets, they achieved consistent results that met ASTM and Caltrans specifications. Their testing team reported faster turnaround time with improved accuracy.

Ohio, USA

A geotechnical consulting group in Ohio deployed Soil Ground Testing’s complete Atterberg Limits Device set to classify soils for a flood mitigation project. They noted that our equipment provided superior durability under field and lab conditions, and the data enabled reliable decision-making for drainage structures.

Alberta, Canada

A provincial environmental agency in Alberta integrated our Atterberg testing kits to evaluate farmland soil properties for moisture retention and crop suitability. Their team highlighted ease of use, regulatory compliance, and consistent repeatability as major advantages of choosing Soil Ground Testing.
