Sumario:With the development of the geotechnical reinforcement technology, the form of reinforcing materials tends to be three-dimensional. Strengthened blocks of a certain thickness are attached to the joints of the longitudinal and transverse ribs of an ordinary biaxial geogrid so that it becomes a geogrid with strengthened nodes with a three-dimensional reinforcement effect. The layout of the strengthened nodes is divided into two types: upper and lower bilateral arrangement and upper unilateral arrangement, in which the total node thickness was the same. To explore the complex interaction mechanism of the reinforced soil interface, a series of indoor pull-out tests are conducted to investigate the influence of strengthened node arrangement on the characteristics of the reinforced soil interface. Based on the punching shear failure mechanism, the reinforcing mechanism of strengthened nodes is analyzed and the theoretical model of ultimate pull-out resistance is obtained. The results show that the ultimate pull-out resistance of the geogrid with strengthened nodes has a positive correlation with normal stress and node thickness. At the same normal stress, compared with the ordinary geogrid, the ultimate pull-out resistance of the two layout types of strengthened nodes is improved to some extent. The highest improvement rates are 118.33% and 96.73%, respectively. The interface apparent friction coefficient, pseudo cohesion, and comprehensive friction angle increase simultaneously. The ultimate pull-out resistance of the upper and lower bilateral arrangement is bigger than that of the upper unilateral arrangement. The error between the theoretical value based on the punching shear failure mode and the experimental value is less than 10%, and the strengthened node significantly improves the pull-out resistance of the geogrid.
