Abstract
Following the emergence of new morphology geogrids, tensile tests on some of the new morphology geogrids were conducted in this paper for practical engineering options. The study focuses on the tensile testing of 3D printed geogrids to analyze the effects of morphology differences (material, planar structure, filling rate, rib width and rib height) on the tensile properties of geogrids. The test results show that the tensile properties of high density polyethylene geogrids are stronger than those of polylactic acid geogrids. Increasing the filling rate of geogrid can increase the tensile performance while decreasing the rate of tensile performance improvement. In contrast to the elongation at the break of the geogrid, the maximum tensile strength and the maximum tensile modulus increase in the order of bidirectional, triaxial and quadaxial geogrids. When the rib width and the rib height increase by the same amount, the rib height increases the maximum tensile strength of the geogrid more than that of the rib width. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
