If atterberg limits is for fine grained soils. Then why not silty soils?
Sufyan said:

Atterberg limit is the use for cohesive soil only and clay is cohesive.

If liquid limit could be found clearly then density index of fine-grained soil should be defined Which is not practically possible.
Harish said:

It just because that all index properties are valid for fine-grained soil.

Yes, clay is the right answer.

Because exist liquid state the soils are more liquid. And then saturated position so clay is the correct answer.
