1 REPORT SCOPE
This report presents the results of the geotechnical investigation carried out by PTG Consulting (PTG) for the
proposed residential development to be located at 7 Noosa Parade, Noosa Heads. The investigation was
commissioned by Tom Harrington on behalf of SCG Consulting Engineers.

The geotechnical investigation included four (4) auger boreholes with Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) testing
and laboratory testing of selected samples undertaken in general accordance with PTG’s proposal PTGT/01451/Rev0,
‘AS1726:2017-Geotechnical Site Investigations’ and ‘AS1289-Methods of Testing for Engineering Purposes’.

This report includes a description of the fieldwork procedures, the results of the fieldwork and laboratory testing, and
reporting on the following:
» Site description including detailed bored logs, site images and marked site plan with approximate test locations;
»   Review of regional geology;
»   Subsurface conditions, including groundwater (if encountered);
»   Acid Sulfate Soils (ASS): Actual Acid Sulfate Soils (AASS) and/or Potential Acid Sulfate Soils (PASS) (if
    encountered);
»   Site classification and predicted ground surface movement (ys) in accordance with AS 2870-2011;
»   Allowable bearing pressures for high level footings and estimated settlements;
»   Suitable pile types, ultimate base bearing, skin frictions and estimated settlement (if required);
»   Retaining wall design parameters;
»   Any other geotechnical issues identified that would need management (if any).



2 SITE DESCRIPTION
The site is located at 7 Noosa Parade, Noosa Heads and is identified as Lots 0, 00000 and 1 on BUP10936. The site
