Accessing Grid Items Client-Side

<telerik:RadGrid ID="RadGrid1" runat="server" OnNeedDataSource="RadGrid1_NeedDataSource">
</telerik:RadGrid>

<telerik:RadButton runat="server" ID="RadButton1" Text="RadButton1" AutoPostBack="false" OnClientClicked="RadButton1_OnClientClicked" />

Looping through the dataItems collection

function RadButton1_OnClientClicked(sender, args) {
    // Grid
    var grid = $find('<%= RadGrid1.ClientID %>');
    // MasterTable
    var masterTable = grid.get_masterTableView();
    // Items/Rows
    var dataItems = masterTable.get_dataItems();

    for (var i = 0; i < dataItems.length; i++) {
        var item = dataItems[i];
    }
}

Access Selected Items only

function RadButton1_OnClientClicked(sender, args) {
    // Grid
    var grid = $find('<%= RadGrid1.ClientID %>');

    var selectedItems = grid.get_selectedItems();

    for (var i = 0; i < selectedItems.length; i++) {
        var dataItem = selectedItem[i];

    }
}

Accessing the Header row (tr element)

function myFunction(){
    var grid = $telerik.findControl(document, "RadGrid1");
    var gridElement = grid.get_element();

    // If Scrolling with StaticHeaders is enabled, Grid renders a separate HTML table for the Headers, and separate ones for the rows
    // otherwise one HTML table is rendered for both the Headers and the Rows
    var HasStaticHeaders = grid.ClientSettings.Scrolling && grid.ClientSettings.Scrolling.UseStaticHeaders;
    var headerRow = HasStaticHeaders ? grid.GridHeaderDiv.querySelector("thead > tr") : grid.get_masterTableView().HeaderRow;
}
