Consideration of the creep characteristics of frozen soil is required when it is used for the construction of retaining walls. It is generally accepted that there are three kinds of frozen soils, i.e., frozen soil without ice lenses, frozen soil with layers of ice lenses and frozen soil with needle-
The creep response of a cohesive soil tested in uniaxial compression is presented in terms of a creep compliance function. The variables considered include strain, time, stress level, and moisture content. The soil response is de~nitely nonlinear, but the stress dependence of the creep compliance is
