Tendon and plate design for tied-back wall

Tendon and plate design for tied-back wall

(OP)
Hi -

Can anyone guide me to formulas that relate to calculation of miniumm steel plate size and thickness, and minimum tendon diameter for design of a tied-back retaining wall. Anchor plate would be square and would have a central hole. Reidbar tendon load would be applied to the plate in a donut type load distribution. Only the one row of anchors is assumed.

Thanks

FHWA Circular No.4 Ground Anchors and Anchored Structures Publication No. FHWA-IF-99-015. Talk to DYWIDAG Systems International for the design of the bearing plates. Good luck!
