2. Tieback (geotechnical) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tieback_(geotechnical)

   Upon installation, tiebacks are tested and usually pre-loaded. In specific, a combination of proof tests and performance tests are performed on every job. Proof testing involves the application of successively larger loads on the tieback with a loading jack, allowing for the recording of a load-elongation curve according to gauge readings.

   Bonded anchors are also referred as adhesive anchors [9] or chemical anchors. The anchoring material is an adhesive (also called mortar) [3] usually consisting of epoxy, polyester, or vinylester resins. [1] In bonded anchors, the force-transfer mechanism is based on bond stresses provided by binding organic materials.
