8% Lime added 52.7 7.3 14.8
10% Lime added 50.2 6.3 13.1
Recommendation for 7% lime @ 6" depth - 32.0 lbs. per sq. yd.
This number should not be considered as a specified amount, rather an amount that
we feel would be required to reduce the plasticity index using normal work effort,
under realistic conditions.
