Agencies that meet the criteria of Practice <span class="Note-link1 cdone">D3740</span> are generally considered capable of competent and objective testing. Users of this test method are cautioned that compliance with Practice <span class="Note-link1 cdone">D3740</span> does not in itself assure reliable testing.

In these two cases, a dual symbol is used, for example, GP-GM, CL-ML. When the laboratory test results indicate that the soil is close to another soil classification group, the borderline condition can be indicated with two symbols separated by a slash. The first symbol should be the one based on this standard, for example, CL/CH, GM/SM, SC/CL. Borderline symbols are particularly useful when the liquid limit value of clayey soils is close to 50. These soils can have expansive characteristics and the use of a borderline symbol (CL/CH, CH/CL) will alert the user of the assigned classifications of expansive potential.</span></p></div></div> <div class="SectionLevel2"> <p class="subsec1 cdone2"><span class="Head3 cdone">1.2</span> The group symbol portion of this system is based on laboratory tests performed on the portion of a soil sample passing the 3-in.
