Abstract
The testing equipment, specimen preparation and testing procedures are described for a series of pull-out tests on geogrids in granular soil. The interaction between a well graded very gravelly sand and a uniaxial geogrid made of high density polyethylene is studied in a pull-out box with dimensions of 1.53 m length, 1·00m width and 0·80m height. The influence of the confinement pressure, soil density and displacement rate on the pull-out resistance of the geogrid is discussed by analysing the results of the pull-out tests.
