Any recommendation of text books on tieback retaining wall with anchor design? Or can anyone share any example please? I am new to this especially have problem determining the bond and free length and the stability check. I am designing to Australian standard so prefer books or examples to Australian standard but don't mind any books or examples to other standards.
I also have a quick question in regard to this, there is existing adjoining property, what consideration should I take into account?
Thank you.
 
A common North American reference is the PTI's "Recommendations for Prestressed Rock and Soil Anchors". Link

Back-in-the-day VSL Australia's chief engineer in the 1970's through 2000's - Brian Cavill - authored a paper that was (is?) commonly used for ground anchor design. I would call VSL, Austress-Freyssinet, Dywidag or Structural Systems (BBR) in Australia and seek their local knowledge/practices, especially whether strand or bar PT systems are appropriate to your application.
