Abstract: Through investigating the data that correlated with the loess, the engineering behaviors of the saturated loess and the soft loess were presented to compare with the loess in Xi’an; and the differences between them are pointed out. At the same time, the rheological model of unsaturated loess loading-volume and its applicable conditions have been described emphatically. Finally, the application of the model is analyzed in detail.

Key words: saturated loess, soft loess, unsaturated loess, rheological model, collapsible loess
