CONNECTIONS FOR GEOGRID SYSTEMS

A general discussion on connection types for geogrid reinforcement systems is presented. The various mechanical and frictional methods for connecting geogrid to geogrid, and geogrid to a structural element are defined in general terms. Basic design guidelines are recommended to assure connection integrity to geogrid reinforcement systems.(A)
