Summary

THE PAPER DESCRIBES THE CREEP DEFLECTION OF A 300 MM DIAMETER, STEEL CIRCULAR PLATE RESTING ON THE SURFACE OF A FROZEN SAND AT 270 K (-3 DEG C) OVER A PERIOD OF ABOUT ONE YEAR. THE TEST CONSISTED OF INCREMENTALLY LOADING THE PLATE AND ALLOWING CREEP DEFORMATION TO OCCUR UNDER EACH INCREMENT. FOUR LOADS, WHICH PRODUCED AVERAGE BEARING PRESSURES OF 0.880, 1. 804, 2.675 AND 3.438 MEGAPASCALS WERE APPLIED. THE CREEP RESPONSE WAS OF A DECAYING NATURE FOR ALL LOADS.
