* Investigation of the subsurface profile at the proposed location area by drilling,
sampling and in-situ testing with four (4) boreholes.
* Engineering analysis of site investigation and laboratory test results to evaluate:-
- Foundation and slab recommendations
- Retaining wall design recommendations
- | Recommendations on site preparations

PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT

 

We understand that a three-storey residence is proposed. Based on the architectural
plan included with the brief, the proposed building is to have suspended slab floors with

the ground floor supported on deep foundations.

Significant earthworks are expected for the proposed development, with a 6m retaining
