Planar geogrids are the go-to option for most soil reinforcement applications. In recent years, geogrid design and manufacturing methods are continuously evolving, resulting in more effective and versatile solutions for complex geotechnical problems. These evolutions are accompanied by advancements in material compositions and also the use of new materials. The present research investigates the utilization of different polymers in the design of geogrids through the aid of 3D-printing tool. Two different filaments Polylactcic Acid (PLA) and Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol (PETG) were used to 3D-print geogrids with the fused deposition modeling approach. Geogrid-sand interactions are used as the indicators for the evaluation of the geotechnical performance of 3D-printed geogrids. A series of direct shear tests were carried out on the 3D-printed geogrids embedded in poorly graded sand. Normal pressures of 50, 100, and 150 kPa were utilized in the investigation. For comparison of the efficiency at different interfaces, the interface coefficient (α) was considered. The interface coefficient of sand reinforced with printed geogrids was observed to be lesser than that of the sand-sand interface. The results showed that the modified geogrids produced using PLA filament outperformed PETG geogrids demonstrating 14.43% higher tensile strength and 5% greater interface shear strength efficiency. In conclusion, the 3D printing technique allows for the adaptation and modification of new geogrid designs by offering flexibility in selecting materials.
