Tiebacks eliminate internal bracing
Tiebacks with 40 to 115 ft-long tendons hold back 65-ft high cut-off wall during excavation at new World Trade Center site in New York City; tendons consist of 11 to 24 cables, 1/2-in. in diam. that will be anchored 30 to 35 ft in bedrock to brace retaining wall during excavation; wall consists of series of 22-ft wide panels, which were cast in alternate sections, then joined by filling gaps; each of these panels, as excavation exposes it, is anchored with two vertical rows of ties.
