stormwater discharge shown on Drawing No.1211/P02, complies with recommendations

from the Geotechnical Report for the site.

3.0 STRUCTURAL ENGINEERING FOR RENOVATIONS

In order to solve the drainage inundation problem, the floor level of the altered house will
be raised over the existing slab.

Enclosed is our preliminary Drawing No. 1211/P05 which shows the waffle slab system on

top of the existing house slab.

Footings for altered load bearing walls will be taken through the existing slab to
acceptable bearing material as specified in attached Geotechnical Report No.14169-001-

Rev0 by Tectonic Geotechnical & Environmental Engineers.

The structural section of the house enclosed, shows the proposed new retaining wall
external to the house. It has been designed to help resolve the current stormwater
inundation problem.

4.0 CONCLUSION

This report and the accompanying engineering drawings were undertaken at preliminary
building stage to ensure that the proposed house alterations are compatible with the
existing site, and that all engineering issues can be satisfactorily addressed at Building
Application stage.

It is our engineering opinion that the alterations to this house will overcome the current

drainage inundation problems, and that the alterations will be structurally suitable for this
site.
