Notation such as (SP) refers to the soil description to Table A1 AS1726 ‘Guide to the description
identification and classification of soils’.
Solid lines represent sharp interface between different soil types. Dotted lines represent
gradation form one soil type to another.
Abbreviations used
UTP - unable to penetrate, Bec. – becoming, N.S.L. – Natural Surface Level
Med. – medium, MW - Moderately weathered
EW - extremely weathered, Plast. - Plasticity
No recovery means unable to extract samples from the base of the bore hole because the soil
will not bind in the auger head.
The colour of the soil is often abbreviated, for example Gy = grey Or = orange.
(Ls=? %) Indicates sample location and Linear Shrinkage result.
The footings must be dug into or supported on piers dug into the shaded material.
