Level 1 Geotechnical testing and inspection services, in accordance with AS 3798-2007
Guidelines on earthworks for commercial and residential developments and AS 2870-2011
Residential slabs and footings, at 135 Lake Weyba Drive, Noosaville, Queensland.
Up to 2.5m of Fill has been placed on the site by AG and tested by CQA at the following
locations:
o Lots 1, 2 and 4, 135 Lake Weyba Drive, Noosaville, Queensland

Test locations are shown in Appendix A.
2 Site Description
The site is located in a semi-rural area surrounded by residential developments and
uncleared and semi cleared bushland. The site is approximately rectangular as shown in
Appendix A. Prior to the works the site was a rural residential property comprising semi-
cleared bushland.
Up to 8,000m3 of fill material has been placed on the site by AG to a depth of up to 2.5m.
Lot 2 was filled with Clay Fill and Lots 1 and 4 with Sand Fill.
3 Fieldwork
21 in-situ density tests along with 7 accompanying laboratory Proctor standard compaction
tests and 14 Max Min Density Tests were undertaken on the site by CQA and in the CQA
Laboratory on 20 September 2022. Dry Density Ratio and Density Index Reports
compiled by Civil Quality Assurance Pty Ltd are detailed in Appendix B.
During the in-situ testing the earthworks surface was observed and seen to be free of
deleterious material.
The amount and frequency of testing is sufficient to comply with Level 1 supervision in
accordance with AS3798.
4 Test results
Lots 1 and 4 - Test results (Appendix B) indicate that the Sand fill has been compacted to
between 82 and 87.5% of Density Index.
Lot 2- Test results (Appendix B) indicate that the Clay fill has been compacted to between
97.5% and 99% of Standard Maximum Dry Density at a moisture content of 0% to -2.5%
of Optimum.
