Popis:	The Authors have presented an interesting paper (Hrubesova et al., 2020), which aims (in part) to validate the Moharjerani (1999) calibration approach for establishing the 80 g/30° fall-cone penetration depth equating to the liquid limit by the Casagrande percussion-cup approach, determined according to the British Standard. In this paper, the Discussers present some clarifications on, and state various observations regarding, the approaches adopted in the Hrubesova et al. (2020) investigation, as well as the Moharjerani (1999) calibration approach employed therein. The Discussers also present a description of some relevant literature not covered in the Authors' paper (Hrubesova et al. 2020) aimed at making further clarifications on this important area of geotechnical practice.
