Abstract: For the reason of special expansive characteristics of red sandstone, a series of experimental procedure performed in rock mechanics rigidity servo testing system (RMTS815.02) and rock oedometer, developed to determine the swelling behaviour of red sandstone taken from a foundation pit of Hongshanyao Project (HSYP) in Nanjing, is described. Based on the experimental data, an empirical formula of expansive strain with water content was expressed as . It is clear that the curve of expansive strain-water content is a logarithm. In the meantime, the relation of expansive strain with time was studied and the importance of expansive stabilization time was illuminated. The experimental results indicated that the water content has a tremendous effect on peak expansive and steady expansive deformation of swelling red sandstone; and it must be a momentous guide in the engineering design and construction.
