Slope Stability - lindsays

                                    LIMITATIONS
Recommendations given in this report are based on the information supplied by the client
regarding the proposed building construction in conjunction with the findings of the
investigation. Any change in construction type, building location or omission in the client
supplied information, may require additional testing and/or make the recommendations invalid.

The recommendations herein identify a target soil stratum into which the footings are to be
founded. The target stratum has been located by the depth in mm of the target stratum's upper
horizon boundary below the existing ground surface level at the time of the site investigation.
Any cutting or filling works and any surface erosion or deposits subsequent to the site
investigation, will alter the measured location of the stratum relative to the surface. Where
required, the author should be notified in such cases to confirm the location of the target stratum.

The description of the soil given in the Soil Profile section of this report is intended as a brief
overview of the soil's primary constituents. For a detailed classification of the soil, the reader
should refer to the Soil Profile Reports and/or Borehole Reports attached to this report.

Every reasonable effort has been made to locate the test sites so that the borehole profiles are
representative of the soil conditions within the area investigated. The client should be made
aware however, that exploration is limited by time available and economic restraints. In some
cases soil conditions can change dramatically over short distances, therefore, even careful
exploration programs may not locate all the variations.

If soil conditions different from those shown in this report are encountered or are inferred from
other sources, then the author must be notified immediately.

This report may not be reproduced except in full. The information and drawings provided with
this report shall only be used and will only be applicable for the development shown on the
client supplied information provided for this site.

Any dimensions, contours, slope directions and magnitudes shown on the Test Locality Plan
shall not be used for any building construction or costing calculations. The purpose of the plan
is to show approximate location of field tests only.

Any changes made to these recommendations by persons unauthorised by the author will legally
be interpreted as that person assuming the responsibility for the long-term performance of the
footing system.

The recommendations contained in this report have not taken into consideration the long term
effects of any previous, current or potential subsurface work by mining companies or potential
slope instability problems. At the time of writing this report neither our client (nor his agent)
nor the local authority had made the author aware that these problems may be affecting this
allotment. If a mining subsidence or slope stability assessment is required for this allotment,
the recommendations of a suitably qualified geotechnical engineer should be sought.
