Geosynthetic Tensile Test
ASTM D6637 Single Rib and Multi-Rib Geogrids Tensile Test
Introduction
Used for determination of the tensile strength properties of geogrids by subjecting strips of varying width to tensile loading.
It is used for quality control and conformance testing of geogrids.
Three alternative procedures are provided to determine the tensile strength, as follows:
Method A-Testing a single geogrid rib in tension
Method B-Testing multiple geogrid ribs in tension.
Method C-Testing multiple layers of multiple geogrid ribs in tension.
