1、Designation:D755610(Reapproved 2019)Standard Test Methods forDetermining Small-Strain Tensile Properties of Geogrids andGeotextiles by In-Air Cyclic Tension Tests1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D7556;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal
2、adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 These test methods cover the determination of small-strain tensile properti
3、es of geogrids and geotextiles by subject-ing wide-width specimens to cyclic tensile loading.1.2 These test methods(A,B,and C)allow for the deter-mination of small-strain cyclic tensile modulus by the mea-surement of cyclic tensile load and elongation.1.3 This test method is intended to provide prop
4、erties fordesign.The test method was developed for mechanistic-empirical pavement design methods requiring input of thereinforcement tensile modulus.The use of cyclic modulus fromthis test method for other applications involving cyclic loadingshould be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.1.4 Three tes
