SOIL TEST, SLOPE STABILITY & FOOTING REPORT — Lot 1 Seaview Terrace,
Sunshine Beach

1.0 COMMISSION :

SCG Consulting Engineers was commissioned to perform a site investigation for the
purpose of determining parameters required for foundation design for current
proposals within the allotment. An assessment of slope stability within the site to
support the proposed development is also to be included.

The allotment is located within the previous Noosa Shire Council designated sand
dune problem area.

2.0 TESTING PROGRAMME:

The fieldwork for this investigation was performed on 3/04/2007. 4 (No.) Boreholes
were excavated within the allotment. 3 (No.) boreholes were excavated with hand
augers and the fourth with a Jacro 200 Mounted 4WD Drill Rig. Disturbed samples
were collected and classified on site in accordance with Table A1 of AS 1726 - 1993
“Guide to the Description, Identification and Classification of Soils” These
classifications are shown on the attached logs.

The resistance of the soils encountered were tested with an approved 9kg Perth
Sand Penetrometer and the results recorded at the appropriate levels on the
attached log sections.

3.0 SITE DESCRIPTION

The allotment is registered as Lot 1 RP197117 Seaview Terrace and is located on
the end of a service easement extending off the northern end of Seaview Terrace
Sunshine Beach.

The allotment slopes up down from its access point in a north easterly direction
towards the beach frontage at grades of approximately 1 in 3.5 to 1 in 2.0 (16° -
