I am a new designer at a structural engineering firm in Honolulu. I was wondering if anyone had a good reference to the design of tieback retaining walls? I am more interested in the structural side of things such as the design of the anchorage zone and stressing blocks as opposed to the geotechnical aspect. Thank you.
