9.0 Conditions of Use of This Report
9.1 Report Limitations______________________________________________________________________
1. The recommendations in this report are based on the following:
a) Information about the site & its history, proposed site treatment and building type conveyed to us by
the client and or their agent
b) Professional judgments and opinions using the most recent information in soil testing practice that is
available to us.
c) The location of our test sites and the information gained from this and other investigations.
2. Should the client or their agent neglect to supply us with correct or relevant information, including information
about previous buildings, trees or past activities on the site, or should changes be made to the building type, size and
or/position, this report may be made obsolete, irrelevant or unsuitable. In such cases, Intrax will not accept any liability
for the consequences and Intrax reserves the right to make an additional charge if more testing or a change to the report
is necessary.
3. The recommendations made in this report may need to be reviewed should any site works disturb any soil
200mm below the proposed founding depth.
4. The descriptions of the soils encountered in the boreholes follow those outlined in AS1726-2017; Geotechnical
Site Investigations. Colour descriptions can vary with soil moisture content and individual interpretation.
5. If the site conditions at the time of construction differ from those described in this report then Intrax must be
contacted so a site inspection can be carried out prior to any footing being poured. The owner/builder will be
responsible for any fees associated with this additional work.
6. This report assumes that the soil profiles observed in the boreholes are representative of the entire site. If the
soil profile and site conditions appear to differ substantially from those reported herein, then Intrax should be contacted
immediately and this report may need to be reviewed and amended where appropriate. The owner/builder will be
responsible for any fees associated with this additional work.
7. The user of this report must take into account the following limitations. Soil and drilling depths are given to a
tolerance of +/- 200mm. Where spot levels or a feature survey have been undertaken, levels are given a tolerance of +/-
200mm.
8. It must be understood and a condition of acceptance of this report is that whilst every effort is made to identify
fill material across the site, difficulties exist in determining fill material, in particular, for example, well compacted site or
area derived fill, when utilising a small diameter auger. Consequently, Intrax emphasises that we will not be responsible
for any financial losses, consequential or otherwise, that may occur as a result of not accurately determining the fill
profile across the site.
9. The owner(s) and/or future owner(s) shall be cognisant of their responsibilities as outlined in AS2870-2011
Appendices A and B.
10. Intrax’s assessment of flooding is based on Government/Council planning and GIS data available at the time of
this investigation. Intrax has not made a site specific assessment based on height or hydrological data with reference to
the future flood risk at the property. Intrax does not guarantee that this site is free from flooding as further detailed
investigation may be required.
a) This report does not assess the potential for landslide, undermining or aggressive soils.
11. Unless specifically mentioned, this report has not considered the risk of subsidence caused by historical, current
or future mining activities.
