dot.ca.gov(II) Lateral Earth Pressures. Consult with Geotechnical Services for suitable lateral earth pressure distribution for the project. For earth retaining systems constructed from the top down and restrained by ground anchors (tiebacks), the lateral earth pressure acting on the wall height, H, may be determined as described below.
