Estimation of surcharge (lateral pressure) from building and traffic for tieback wall design
(OP)
All,
Can some body suggest me some good references or info about "how to estimate surcharge (lateral pressure) from existing buildings and/or local traffic" that can be used for tie-back shoring wall design?
Thanks a bunch in advance.

Also, here's a spreadsheet I developed for pressures on buried structures (originally intended for manholes with aircraft wheel load surcharges). I make no warranty that this is correct and all that legal disclaimer stuff (use at your own risk).
