4 1 Scope This document specifies a method for determining the resistance of geotextiles and geotextile-related products to pullout from soil using a laboratory pullout box. The goal of the procedure is to provide data relating to the development of friction on materials used primarily for soil reinforcement. The test method described is a performance test procedure to determine the fitness for use of geotextiles and geotextile-related products intended to be used in a given application. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies. EN 963, Geotextiles and geotextile-related products - Sampling and preparation of test specimens
prEN ISO 10318:2000, Geosynthetics - Geotextiles, geotextile-related products, geomembranes and geosynthetic clay liners - Terms and their definitions (ISO/DIS 10318:2000) ISO 554, Standard atmospheres for conditioning and/or testing - Specifications 3 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in prEN ISO 10318:2000 and the following apply. 3.1 pullout force force required to pull a geotextile or a geotextile-related product out of the soil during a pullout test 3.2 pullout resistance pullout force per width of geotextile or geotextile-related product measured at a specified rate of displacement 3.3 peak pullout resistance maximum pullout resistance measured during a pullout test 3.4 wire gauge displacement gauge consisting of an inextensible wire attached to the geotextile or geotextile-related product and monitored by connection to a dial extensometer, or electronic displacement transducer 3.5 normal stress (σσσσn) vertical stress applied to the specimen 4 Principle A horizontal force is applied to a specimen embedded between two layers of soil and the force required to pull the specimen out of the soil is recorded. The pullout resistance is calculated by dividing the pullout force by the specimen width. The test can be performed while applying vertical stress to the top soil layer. SIST EN 13738:2005

5 A plot of maximum pullout resistance versus applied normal stress is obtained by conducting a series of such tests. NOTE 1 The relationship between the pullout resistance and the normal stress obtained from the test is due in part to the pullout mechanism which occurs. The pullout resistance versus normal stress plot produced using data from this test is a function of soil grading, plasticity, as-placed density, moisture content, length and surface characteristics of the specimen and other test parameters. Therefore, results are expressed in terms of the actual test conditions. The test measures the net effect of a combination of pullout mechanisms which may vary depending on type of specimen, embedment length, relative opening size, soil type, rate of displacement and normal stress. NOTE 2 For checking the type of failure (break of reinforcement or slippage) in a site specific soil, smaller boxes, e.g. a shear box (300 mm x 300 mm) according to prEN ISO 12957–1, may be used with a specimen width similar to the one defined in EN ISO 10319.
5 Test Specimens 5.1 Sampling Take specimens in accordance with EN 963. 5.2 Number and dimensions of test specimens Cut three specimens from the test sample, for each direction to be tested, the size of the specimens to suit the dimensions of the apparatus being used. The embedded length shall be equal to three times the width of the specimen. The specimens shall be narrower, by not less than 100 mm, than the inside width of the pullout box on each side and of sufficient length to facilitate clamping.
5.3 Conditioning Condition the test specimens and conduct the tests in the standard test atmosphere, defined in ISO 554. The test specimens are considered to have been conditioned when the change in mass between two successive readings made at intervals of not less than two hours does not exceed 0,25% of the mass of the test specimens. The test shall be performed in the same atmosphere. NOTE Conditioning and/or testing at a specified relative humidity may be omitted if it can be shown that the results are not affected by this omission. 6 Apparatus 6.1 Pullout box An open rigid box consisting of two smooth parallel sides, a back wall, a horizontal split removable door and a bottom plate. The door is at the front of the apparatus as defined by the direction of applied pullout force. A typical apparatus is shown in Figure 1. SIST EN 13738:2005

Key 1 Pullout device 2 Grip 3 Load cell 4 Air bag 5 Soil 6 Specimen
Figure 1 – Pullout box
A standard box should be rectangular with minimum dimensions of 1,5 m long by 0,6 m wide and 0,3 m deep.
Depth shall be increased to six times the maximum particle size of the soil if necessary. The apparatus shall allow the placing of the normal stress control device and a minimum loaded specimen length to width ratio of not less than three. The apparatus shall be fitted with devices to ensure a constant normal stress on all surfaces of the specimen during the test. NOTE During the test, the displacement of the specimen may create a load on the rigid front wall. This loading can also produce anomalous results as stress fields cannot develop fully.
Vertical stress may also increase due to front wall friction and arching. A fixed metal sleeve fitted at the entrance of the box with a minimum length of 200 mm should be used for minimise these phenomena (Figure 2).
Key 1 Grip 2 Sleeve device Figure 2 – Normal stress control devices
6.2 Normal stress loading device
The normal stress, applied to the upper layer of soil, shall be constant and uniform for the duration of the test. To maintain a uniform normal stress, a flexible pneumatic or hydraulic diaphragm loading device over the entire pullout box area should be used. Normal stresses applied will depend on testing requirements; however, stresses up to 200 kPa should be anticipated in the design of the apparatus. The applied normal stress shall be measured to a precision of 2 % of the applied stress. 6.3 Pu
