Abstract

A review of current knowledge on model studies of reinforced soil by pullout test is described in the paper. The pullout test, highly significant in soil-reinforcement characterisation, is described through a review of studies that have contributed to the characterisation of soil-grid interaction and development of testing techniques. The influence of test boundary conditions and other factors on pullout test results is described. The pullout testing apparatus developed at the Faculty of Civil Engineering in Osijek is presented.
