Abstract
This paper reports the result of insitu pullout test of chain reinforced wall constructed in mountainous region of Japan. The insitu test was performed for chain with and without end bearing plate anchor and horizontal bar. Test results revealed that the end bearing anchor greatly improved the pullout force of chain than the horizontal bar. The horizontal bar was found to be weak in tension and therefore did not greatly enhance the pullout force of chain. Comparison of the measured field values and the design values calculated from existing design methods yielded results that were in good agreement.
