4.4 Subsurface Conditions
Detailed descriptions of the subsurface conditions encountered in the boreholes are provided in the
borehole reports attached in Appendix A, along with definition sheets which describe terms and
abbreviations used on the reports. The subsurface conditions encountered in the boreholes are
summarised as follows:
Topsoil – comprising very loose to loose organic sand, to a depth of 0.1 m BGL; then
Fill – comprising loose sand, to depths of between 0.7 m and 1.1 m BGL; with underlying
Natural Sands – comprising poorly graded sands, mostly being loose to depths of between 1.2 m
and 1.7 m BGL; then becoming medium dense and increasing to dense below depths of between
3.2 m and 3.6 m BGL.
Table 1 below summarises the subsurface profile encountered.
