Abstract

The tensile strength of frozen soil is affected by many factors such as temperature, particle size distribution, and moisture content, among which temperature is the primary influencing factor. Temperature affects it mainly by affecting the ice and unfrozen water in the frozen soil. By summarizing the research on tensile strength and temperature of frozen soil, the rules between them are systematically summarized. The results show that the relationship between tensile strength and temperature of frozen soil can be described by linear and nonlinear models. The tensile strength of warm frozen soil increases with the decrease of temperature. However, the tensile strength of cryogenic frozen soil may increase first and then decrease with decreasing temperature. This temperature at which the tensile strength decreases is called the “brittle temperature”.
