 JOB NUMBER          20/0309    SITE CLASSIFICATION REPORT
 CLIENT              RG STRATEGIC AUSTRALIA.
 SITE                PROPOSED ALTERATIONS & ADDITIONS TO EXISTING UNITS.
 LOCATION            38 AVOCET PARADE, PEREGIAN BEACH.
 REPORT DATE         24/04/2020

   1. INTRODUCTION
      The purpose of this report is to classify the subject allotment in accordance with Australian
      Standard 2870 - 2011 'Residential Slabs and Footings'. From this classification, a footing
      system can be recommended for the structure so as to allow adequate performance of the
      footings under the soil conditions determined at the site.
      Trees: There are several medium sized trees on & adjacent to the proposed site. Global
      Testing recommends an experienced arborist be commissioned to quantify the existing
      size, location, predicted maximum height and type of these trees to aid in the design
      process. It is the responsibility of the designing engineer to apply the principals of
      AS2870-2011 Appendix H "Guide to Design of Footings for Trees". The classification
      herein excludes the effect of trees on the site.

   3. SITE CLASSIFICATION AND TARGET STRATA
      Based on the findings of the site investigation, the classification of the site is considered to
      conform to:
                CLASS “ P ” ( Due to poor bearing capacity & the presence of
                              trees-See Target Stratum).
            PLEASE NOTE: If not for the poor bearing capacity encountered & presence of trees,
                       this site would have the characteristics of an “S” Site.
