Abstract

Frozen soil, including pore water, pore ice, soil particles and air, is widely distributed on the earth’s surface. Its compressive strength is a significant parameter, which is closely related to cold area engineering and freezing construction. There are many factors affecting its compressive strength, among which temperature is the most important one. For frozen soil, by summarizing the research results on the influence of temperature on the compressive strength of it, the functional relationship between temperature and compressive strength is summarized. The results show the compressive strength is sensitive to the temperature and increases with its decrease. The functional relationship between temperature and compressive strength can be described by exponential function or power function. They can both represent the change law of compressive strength of frozen soil with temperature.
