Council's Reference: 2007/616 Our Reference: 00764 LOS HB Our Project Planner. Hannah Blue | Y ) a OO consulting = pty Itd , town planners + 30.July 2007 urban designers Chief Executive Officer Noosa Shire Council PO Box 141 TEWANTIN Q 4565 Attention: Denis Wallace — Environment and Planning Departme Dear Denis RE: Development Application for Multipte Housing — Type 2 Duplex over land described as Lot 23 on RP 89506 and situated at 8 Attunga Heights, Noosa Heads | refer to the above development application and in particular to the request for additional! information issued by Noosa Council and dated 3 May 2007. This request listed nine (9) items that Council considers it requires in order to complete its assessment of the above application. The applicant has decided to respond to nine (9) of these items as detailed below: Item 1: The vehicle accommodation area is considered a storey as it contains more than one opening in accordance with Council’s definition for building height in storeys. Additionally, the south western apex of the basement is calculated as 1.2 metres out of the ground and does not comply with the definition of a basement. Please provide amended plans to demonstrate compliance with Specific Outcome 7 of the Noosa Heads Locality Code. Comment: Correspondence was forwarded to Council’s Land Use section dated 30 May 2007 which requested Council staff to consider the proposal as containing two separate basements. The following justification was provided: + Due to the slope of the site, the two basements are located at different levels (0.5 metres difference between floor levels); + Each basement is an isolated space, with no direct access provided between the two; , + The Noosa Plan does not restrict the number of basements that may be located on a single site; . * The definition of basement refers to the ‘ceiling height’, of which it is noted varies within each vehicle accommodation space; + The definition of storey refers to a space for the accommodation of véhicles. The two basement areas are clearly considered to be separate spaces; + Council has recently approved multiple basements each with openings less than 6 metres located within a single site, and has not considered these to constitute a storey.

SOIL TEST & FOOTING REPORT: 8 Attunga Heights, Noosa Heads
1.0 INTRODUCTION:
This company has performed a site classification in accordance with AS 2870-1996 and
made recommendations based upon the classification for a building to be constructed
at the above site. This report does not include an assessment of Slope Stability,
Landslide Risk, or specifications for damp proofing, termite protection, moisture
barriers, tie down, bracing or structural member sizing.
This report relates only to the above property and proposed construction as described
below:
“ Proposed Construction: Residential Units

This report must be read and considered as a whole. All of our recommendations,
foundation sections and appendices must be read, considered and followed by all
people involved in this project to ensure adequate long term performance of the footing
system and the structure it supports. If you aré unsure of any of the requirements -
herein, you must seek clarification from this office.
2.0 SITE CLASSIFICATION:

The classification has been calculated from test work performed on the soil profile encountered on the day of our fieldwork and consideration of AS2870-1996. The 'P’ classification relates to the loose sands encountered in the upper profile of our test sites. Any disturbance of the soil profile, may result in a change to the classification. The attached design, has allowed for the influence of the earthworks described in section 5.0 below. Any disturbance of the soil profile, may result in a change to the classification. The attached design, has allowed for the influence of the earthworks described in section 5.0 below. 3.0 SITE DESCRIPTION: The construction area has a gradient in the order of 8%. Vegetation on the construction area (and nearby surrounds) consists of grasses and scattered trees. The existing surface drainage is good and sub-surface drainage is good. 4.0 FINDINGS: . The soil profiles encountered are shown on the attached log sections. No water table was encountered during our testing program. The sandy soils encountered are susceptible to collapse when unconfined. This may effect excavations and result in additional earthworks and increased concrete volumes. For further information please refer to the attached critical line diagram. The samples classified on site were assessed as having low to negligible plasticity, therefore laboratory testing was considered unnecessary. For buildings within the scope of AS 2870-1996, safe bearing 100KPa is available at 300mm into the NATURAL MEDIUM DENSE SANDS. This strata is shown shaded on the attached logs 5.0 SITE PREPARATION DETAILS: We recommend scraping this site free of all organic material and debris, then cutting and filling the construction area to form a level pad. The fill should be clean material from the cut, laid out in 150mm (maximum) layers and tracked rolled with the excavator (six passes in each direction) and extended out 2.0m (minimum) from the building footprint. Cut batters of 1 to 2 (vertical to horizontal) and fill batters of 4 to 3 will be stable providing all fill is compacted as above and exposed banks are protected against erosion. The earthworks must incorporate surface spoon drains at the base and on the high side of the cut. Both drains must have an efficient outflow downslope and clear of the dwelling. Where a retaining wall is required, a cut batter of 1 to 2 (vertical to horizontal) in the sand profile taken from the base of the proposed wall should be excavated. These earthworks must incorporate shallow surface spoon drains at the base and along the high side of the cut. Drains must have an efficient outflow down-siope and clear of the construction area. The exposed face should also be protected against the potential for stormwater erosion. Should these recommendations be un-achievable the builder should seek guidance from this office on temporary shoring, benching or other suitable techniques. Areas where existing structures or trees are removed shall be backfilled with engineer approved fill material compacted in accordance with AS2870-1996, or alternative measures to be provided by the engineer. Any loose or soft material uncovered in the site preparation shall be removed and replaced with approved fill material compacted in accordance with AS2870-1996, or alternative measures to be provided by the engineer. SCG CONSULTING ENGINEERS 2 SCG Ref: 17177(S)
Page 14
Site drainage during construction is important. Stormwater run-off should be diverted away from any foundation excavations and not be able to pond within 5.0m of the building footprint. Temporary spoon drains or other practical methods should be used. Where site drainage and landscaping does not conform to the specifications of AS 2870-1996 and CSIRO Information Service Sheet BTF 18 (2003) significant damage to the building can be expected. A single copy of this document is issued with the original issue of this report. Please consult your builder or contact this office to obtain a copy. 6.0 FOOTING AND SLAB SPECIFICATIONS: Footing Detaits: All footings must be founded a minimum of 300mm into NATURAL MEDIUM DENSE SANDS (shaded on the attached log sections). Dimensions and reinforcement requirements are detailed in the following footing plan and cross-sections. Drilled Piers Supporting the Footings: Where the NATURAL MEDIUM DENSE SANDS is deep or to be covered by fill the footings can be supported on concrete filled drilled piers founded into the NATURAL MEDIUM DENSE SANDS. The depth of these piers should be determined by a specialist contractor. Steel Screw Piers: Alternatively steel screw piers can be used to support the loads nominated in the structural plans. The piers are to be designed and installed by a specialist contractor. The contractor must satisfy themselves with the soils information contained herein to achieve the loads nominated ‘on the structural plans. Further testing may be required and is beyond the scope of this report. Drilled Piers Supporting the Slab: . Slab piers are required where there is more than 300mm of uncontrolled fill beneath the slab. They are to be founded at a minimum of 300mm into the NATURAL MEDIUM DENSE SANDS. Special attention must be paid to the extra thickening and reinforcement required over each pier as detailed in the attached plan and details. Where unexcavatable rock is encountered at depths shallower the founding level the piers shall be augered a minimum of 100mm into un-weathered or un-disturbed rock. Where drilled piers supporting columns or posts are not poured with the slab they must be connected to the slab in the following manner: ¢ 4x N12 bars must be anchored 500mm into the drilled pier and be bent 300mm horizontally into the footing or slab as required. « Where a column penetrates a beam or footing 3x N12 bars must be bent around the column to lap the trench mesh by 500mm both sides. Steel Screw Piers: Alternatively steel screw piers can be used to support the loads nominated in the structural plans. The piers are to be designed and installed by a specialist contractor. The contractor must satisfy themselves with the soils information contained herein to achieve the loads nominated on the structural plans. Further testing may be required and is beyond the scope of this report. SCG CONSULTING ENGINEERS 3 SCG Ref: 17177(S)

Floor Slab Details: We recommend reinforcing the ground floor slab as shown with SL82 slab fabric and the thickenings as specified. Where the foundation level of these thickenings is below prepared pad level, it may be advantageous to excavate them at the same time as the perimeter footing. Where the beams intersect the perimeter footing or blockbase, their base must be graded down to the footing base level, 3 x N12 bars must be cogged into the footing, extended up the core filled wall and lapped 500 with the beams trench mesh. Refer to the attached details. A levelling layer under the floor slab is to comprise of granular material compacted in 150mm layers. Either well graded sand or crusher dust can be used. An approved polyethylene damp proof membrane of 0.2mm (min.) thickness is to be placed over the levelling layer. Laps are to be a minimum of 200mm and be taped. All service penetrations and punctures are to be fully taped. The membrane is to be extended down the inside face of the perimeter footings. Where rock is encountered within the slab area and encroaches within the slab depth it should be excavated to a level which enables placement of a 100mm (min.) layer of granular material under the slab. Notes: All building dimensions are to be obtained from the approved plans. The builder must ensure that the final pier placement meets all the requirements of this report (both written specifications and cross-sections). Ail excavations must be totally free of all loose material and debris before pouring. They must be cleaned out so that the concrete is poured onto undisturbed ground. Tamping and/or watering loose material is not acceptable. We strongly recommend footing excavations be inspected by a qualified person with appropriate experience to confirm the founding material and level is as nominated herein. Similarly all preparations should be inspected prior to the pouring of concrete by a qualified person with appropriate experience to confirm that the workmanship and construction conforms with the details and recommendations contained herein. Tiled Areas: In areas where ceramic floor tiles or brittle coverings alike are required we recommend increasing the size of the slab mesh by one grade. Use flexible adhesives when affixing tiles and delay the laying for as long as possible (at least 3 months, preferably 6 months) after the slab is poured. Reinforcement: Reinforcement is to comply with the following : a) Concrete cover around the reinforcement must be 40mm to unprotected ground, 40mm to external exposure, 30mm to the membrane in contact with the ground, and 20mm to the internal surface. The slab_fabric_ shall be placed towards the top of the slab within the zone defined by these limits. We recommend 30mm top cover. b) Slab fabric must be lapped by one full panel of fabric so that the two outermost transverse wires of one sheet overlap two outermost transverse wires of the sheet being lapped. Slab fabric is to be supported on bar chairs placed at 800mm ctrs. ¢) Trench mesh must have all cross wires cut flush with the outer main wires. Trench mesh in slab and edge beams must be overlapped by the width of the fabric at “T” & “L” intersections. Trench mesh must be spliced, where necessary, by a lap of 500mm. SCG CONSULTING ENGINEERS 4 SCG Ref: 17177(S)
Page 16
d) Pre-Fabricated footing cages or reinforcing bars at “T” & “L” intersections are to have a Y12 corner
lapping bar top and bottom and lapped 500mm with adjacent bars.
e) The minimum lap length of reinforcing bar is to be 500mm or 25 bar diameters, whichever greater.
7.0 ARTICULATION REQUIREMENTS:
The specifications in this report have been specifically formulated for articulated masonry construction.
This usually results lower construction costs. All masonry walls must have full height articulation at a
maximum spacing of 8 meters. The articulation joint must separate the masonry from footing to eaves
level at this spacing. Masonry must be supported on each side of the joint in an approved manner to
retain its structural integrity.
Where used, internal masonry wails should be articulated in accordance with the masonry manufacturers
requirements for the width and type of unit used. In no instance should the spacing exceed 4.0m and
articulation should always be provided at an abutment with an externa! wall.
{f articulation of masonry is found to be unacceptable, the footing system will require re-designing.
In addition to joints in masonry, articulation is achieved wherever a 10mm (min) separation in masonry
from footings to eaves is achieved. For example, where timber panels are used above and / or below
doors and windows.
Where it is necessary to construct construction joints to meet the articulation requirements, they can be
placed in places of limited visibility. For example behind downpipes. Internal masonry walls should be
articulated where they abut the perimeter walls. .
The designer of the building must also ensure that articulation is established:
1. Adjacent to a change in floor level which exceeds 400 mm.
2. If any proposed extension abuts any existing structure, full height articulation must be established
where the new masonry joins the old.
3. Where a masonry wall transgresses from one footing type to another - e.g. from a perimeter
footing to a continuous footing.
. If the building has any masonry arches we must be contacted for further advice.
Methods of articulation are well documented in “Technical Note 61° by the Cement & Concrete
Association.
8.0 LIMITATIONS:
Field Testing Limitations The soil profiles reported in our Log Section should be representative of
the soil conditions over this site. In some cases soil conditions may change dramatically over short
distances, therefore exploration programs may not locate all variations. If site excavations reveal soil
conditions that are different from those shown in the attached log sections we must be immediately
notified. Changes to the site classification and/or footing design may be necessary.
Previous Excavations The recommendations contained in this report have not taken into consideration
the long term effects of any previous, current or potential subsurface excavation mining or potential slope
instability problems. If a slope stability assessment is required for this allotment we can arrange for this to
be done, but that type of report is beyond the scope of our commission and fees in this report.
Client Supplied Information In writing this report we have considered all the information supplied to us
by the client. Should the client or his agent have omitted to supply us with relevant information our report
may be irrelevant and / or inappropriate. We do not take responsibility for the consequences in such
cases and we will make an additional! charge if as a result, more testing or re-writing of the report is
necessary.

Gerieral Recommendations for Builders/Owners: Underground Services Where structures are built over uncontrolled fill, services will need to be supported so that settlement of this fill does not cause them damage or cause incorrect alignment. Plumbing Arrange plumbing fixtures so that the slab and beam penetrations are kept to a minimum and where necessary sleeved to allow for movement with 40mm thick closed cell polythene or similar material. Where the penetration is within 150mm of the base of a beam or footing, the depth of this footing element should be deepened by approximately twice the diameter of the penetration. All plumbing and drainage must comply with the requirements of the National Plumbing and Drainage Code. Drainage The ground surrounding the building site must be graded and drained so that water is shed away from the house area in all directions. Particular attention should be given to all drainage and plumbing trenches so that they do not introduce water to the foundation soil, and destabilise the footings. Correct drainage is an essential part of our recommendations and design. If the site is not prepared correctly, excessive soil moisture may accumulate in some areas, which may lead to wall and/or floor movements. Roof water should be diverted away for the building as soon as the roof is installed. Where building delays occur, temporary downpipes may be necessary. Bracing for Wind Forces Unless noted, we do not detail slab thickenings or pad footings to conform to wind bracing. Where a bracing wall is to be bolted to a slab, 40mm bottom concrete cover attained for a radius of 150mm is required around the bolts unless noted by other consultants. Inspections: We require 24 hours notice if you require engineers site inspections. Inspections can be booked between 8.30am and 4.30pm Monday to Friday by telephoning 07 5447 5544. Site Classification: The site classification is calculated in accordance with the “AS2870-1996 Residential slabs and footings-Construction” and relates to the estimation of Ys, “The characteristic surface movement’ within reactive soil profiles. The limits used for this classification are as follows; [Predicted Surface Movement | Class ] Ys = <=20mm Ss Slight Ys = >20- 40mm M Moderate Ys = >40- 70mm H High Ys => 70mm E Extreme Problem sites P Problem Foundation Maintenance and Owners Responsibilities Trees and dense shrubs must be kept well away from the building. In all types of soil conditions, if an automatic watering system irrigates within 2.5 meters of a footing, instability problems may occur, Water should not be allowed to pond on the ground near the building. Definitions: Controlled Fill - Man placed soil which has sufficient bearing to support a structure according to AS 2870-1996. Fill certified at Level 1 according to AS 3798 is controlled fill. Partially Controlled — Man placed soil which appears to have been compacted under controlled conditions, but as the time of preparing this report, no compaction certificate suitable for compliance to Level 1 of AS 3798-1996 had been presented. Uncontrolled_Fill_= Man_placed_soil_(overlying_the_natural_soils)_which_is_not_adequate to support a normally loaded footing or floor slab. Unexcavatable Rock — Strong material including shaley materia! and strongly cemented sand or gravel that does not soften in water or collapse under the combination of loading and wetting. Material that cannot readily be excavated by a backhoe may be taken to be rock. Excavatable Rock — A rock-like material which does not shrink or swell with changes in soi! moisture, but is readily excavatable with a conventional backhoe. SCG CONSULTING ENGINEERS 6 SCG Ref: 17177(S)
Page 18
Load Bearing Wall — \n our design work a load bearing wall is defined as any wail imposing on the footing a service load greater than 10kN/m. A load bearing wall will normally be supported by a slab thickening or footing in our slab designs. Natural (Strata) — Refers to soil that is neither fill or imported material but one that is in its original undisturbed state and position. Gravel — Coarse soil particles, larger than sand size, but less than 60mm in diameter. Cobblies - Rocks greater than 60mm in diameter but less than 600mm in diameter. Boulders ~ Rocks larger than 600mm in diameter. : NOTE : The information contained herein has been compiled following our field and laboratory testing, accepted engineering theory and discussions with, and information supplied by our client, whom is noted at the head of this report.
