The current study focuses on how different types of soil reinforcement affect the shallow plate anchor’s ability to lift in a sand substrate reinforced with geotextile and geogrid. In this study, a circular plate anchor with a diameter (D) of 100 mm was employed. The size of the 5D reinforcement layers (Br) was used, regardless of the reinforcement. Every model test was carried out in a test tank measuring 1000 mm × 1000 mm × 1000 mm, with the sand bed positioned at a relative density of 70%. During the model experiments, a single number (N) of commercial polypropylene geotextile and polypropylene geogrids were employed, and they were positioned exactly above the anchor (D). According to the test results, during the initial anchor uplifts, the geotextile reinforcement improved more than the geogrid reinforcement. When compared to unreinforced sand, the anchor’s ultimate uplift capability improved 1.28 times with geotextile reinforcement. Additionally, the anchor ultimate uplift capacity of the geogrid-reinforced sand bed was 1.23 times greater than that of the unreinforced, and it improved by the same amount when compared to the geotextile-reinforced sand. This is despite the fact that the geogrid reinforcement area utilized in this study is 2.35 times less than the geotextile reinforcement area. It happened due to the variation in the reinforcement mechanisms i.e., interlocking mechanism (geogrid) and interface frictional mechanism (geotextile).
