[0002] Geosynthetics are products made from synthetically produced polymers, used to reinforce or protect soil layers by placing them within, on the surface of, or between different soil layers. Geocells are a type of geosynthetic material with a unique three-dimensional network structure. They are made from long strips of polymer through various welding processes. The overall strength generated by the interaction between the strips and the welded joints divides the soil into zones, tightly binding the soil through embedding. Simultaneously, the friction between the cell walls and the soil, and the friction between the geocell layer and the surrounding soil layers, form a reinforced body. Geocells are widely used in geotechnical engineering projects such as foundation treatment, embankments, retaining walls, and slope protection.

[0003] Joints play a crucial role in the performance of geocells. To ensure that geocells meet the requirements of geotechnical engineering construction, it is necessary to test the tensile strength of geocell joints. Currently, the tensile strength of joints is tested by clamping a geocell strip specimen with a joint in the middle using a tensile testing device, and then applying an axial force until the specimen fails. When using conventional testing equipment for tensile strength testing, slippage can easily occur between the clamp and the geocell strip specimen, leading to inaccurate results in the tensile strength test of geocell joints.
