GENERAL NOTES
GENERAL

This report comprises the results of an investigation carried out for a specific purpose and client as
defined in the document. The report should not be used by other parties or for other purposes, as
it may not contain adequate or appropriate information.

TEST HOLE LOGGING

The information on the test hole logs has been based on a visual and tactile assessment, except at
the discrete locations where test information is available (field and/or laboratory results).

GROUNDWATER

Unless otherwise indicated, the water levels given on the test hole logs are the levels of free water
or seepage in the test hole recorded at the given time of measuring. The actual groundwater tevel
may differ from this recorded level, depending on material permeabilities. Further variations of this
level could occur with time due to such effects as seasonal and tidal fluctuations or construction
activities. Final confirmation of levels can only be made by appropriate instrumentation techniques
and programmes.

INTERPRETATION OF RESULTS

The discussion/recommendations contained in this report are normally based on site evaluation
from discrete test hole data. Generalised or idealised subsurface conditions (including any cross-
sections contained in this report) have been assumed or prepared by interpolation/extrapolation of
these data. As such, these conditions are an interpretation, and must be considered as a guide

only.
CHANGE IN CONDITIONS

Local variations or anomalies in the generalised ground conditions used for this report can occur,
particularly between discreet test hole locations. Furthermore, certain design or construction
procedures may have been assumed in assessing the soil-structure interaction behaviour of the

site.

Any change in design, in construction methods, or in ground conditions as noted during
construction, from those assumed in this report should be referred to this firm for appropriate
assessment and comment.

FOUNDATION DEPTH

Where referred to in the report, the recommended depth of any foundation (piles, caissons,
footings, etc) is an engineering estimate of the depth to which they should be constructed. The
estimate is influenced and perhaps limited by the fieldwork method and testing carried out in
connection with the site investigation, and other pertinent information as has been made available.
The depth remains, however, an estimate and is therefore liable to variations to the final depth
depending on the ground conditions at each point of support.

REPRODUCTION OF REPORTS

Where it is desired to reproduce the information contained in this report for the inclusion in the
contract documents or engineering specification of the subject development, such reproduction
should include at least all of the relevant trial hole and test data, together with the appropriate
standard description sheets and remarks made in the written report of a factual or descriptive
nature.

This report is the subject of copyright, and shalt not be reproduced either totally or in part without
the express permission of this firm.
