Abstract
Coarse-grained soil is widely used in subgrade engineering, creep property of which is the important factor that affects long-term settlement of fill embankment. The creep property of sandy slate coarse-grained soil under different moisture conditions is analyzed through uniaxial compression creep test on influence rule of moisture content on creep of coarse-grained soil. Relations between moisture contents and creep parameters are studied on the basis of H-K Creep Model. It turns out that moisture content is the important factor that affects creep property of sandy slate coarse-grained soil and using dry or saturated coarse-grained soil is able to decrease long-term settlement of embankment.
