Experimental Study on the Accumulation Law of Creep Deformation in Rockfill Materials under Multistage Loading

Key Points

• Creep deformation is observed to accumulate progressively with multistage loading, leading to significant structural implications.
• The study reports that increased stress levels result in more pronounced strain accumulation in rockfill materials over time.
• Experimental analysis on rockfill materials involved simulating varying loading conditions to assess creep behavior effectively.
• Understanding creep deformation may help inform engineering practices for constructions involving rockfill materials, enhancing safety.
