Abstract

This paper presents the details of an experimental investigation using large-scale inclined pullout apparatus on sheet geosynthetic and geogrid embedded in run-out, I-type, and L-type anchors. The influence of the type of sand on the behaviour of the sheet and the geogrid is also investigated. The results show that in both the sheet and the geogrid, I-type anchor provides approximately 50% and L-type anchor provides 90% higher pullout force than the run-out anchor. The maximum pullout force increases by more than 20% as the inclination of pullout force increases from 0° to 30° for both the sheet and the geogrid.
