How does the FAA Tech Center calculate pressure altitude given the geometric height as measured from an AGHME station?

If you are looking for "the" FAA Tech Center method I can't help - but there are good texts/papers available thru the internet (many by NASA) which describe the physics/geometry in great detail.
