Abstract
In this study, a full-scale reinforced soil wall installing several geogrid pieces was constructed, and pullout tests of the geogrid pieces were conducted from the front side of the wall during and after construction. As a result, it was found that by placing the pullout test rods, which connect the wall panels and the geogrid pieces, into a sheath, the pullout resistance of only the geogrid pieces could be directly measured from the front side of the wall. Additionally, It was found that when the width of the geogrid pieces is small, the pullout displacement required to achieve the specified pullout resistance tends to be underestimated.
