A rheologic equation is proposed for description of the shear deformations of an incompletely saturated clayey soil; the equation was derived on the basis of modification of Maxwell's rheologic model. It is demonstrated that the proposed equation describes creep, relaxation, and kinetic shear for the same parameters, including transient, steadystate, and progressive creep as a function of tangential-stress intensity.
