The stress environments of rock masses are complex. To explore the mechanical properties of sandstone under earthquake or disturbance loads, laboratory triaxial creep tests under different disturbance loads were conducted on sandstone from Fuxin, Liaoning Province, China. Given the disturbance load, a creep deformation pattern for sandstone was analyzed, and the influence of the disturbance load on the mechanical properties of rock was considered. Thus, a constitutive model of rock under creep disturbance load was established. The results show that (1) the creep curve can be divided into four stages: attenuation creep, steady creep, disturbance creep, and acceleration creep; the increment of disturbance creep varies for different disturbance loads and the larger the disturbance load, the larger the disturbance creep deformation; (2) with increasing disturbance loads, the long-term strength, failure time, and elastic modulus of sandstone decreases linearly, while the peak strain increases; and (3) considering the influence of the disturbance load and introducing an acceleration element to modify the Nishihara model, a constitutive model describing the whole deformation process of sandstone under creep disturbance load was established. The accuracy of the model was verified by test data and provides a theoretical basis for rock mass stability analysis.
