                 PROJECT NO.: 23/8894                                                             19th JULY 2023

                 4.       FOUNDATION RECOMMENDATIONS (Cont.):
                          Where slabs are constructed over any Uncontrolled Fill, the slab foundations will need to
                          assessed by the design engineer with all foundations supported through the fill on piers into
                          the underlying dense weathered siltstone
                          All foundations shall be designed by an experienced registered professional engineer.

                          Attention should also be given to erosion protection of cut and filled batters.
                          It is recommended that all batters incorporate crest and toe drainage. The batters should also
                          be covered with topsoil and vegetation to provide long term erosion protection.

                          Before construction proceeds the locations and depths of any surrounding underground
                          services should be determined to ensure they do not interfere with the proposed
                          foundations.



                 5.       GENERAL: The test sites have been located to be reasonably representative of foundation
                          conditions. Should any variation of foundation conditions be encountered during
                          construction, the Engineer should be notified before proceeding, so any necessary changes to
                          construction can be made. Footings excavation and reinforcement placement should be
                          checked before the placement of concrete.

                          Based on the assessment of the Field Testing, the site is considered suitable for the proposed
                          development provided the recommendations set out in this report are adhered to.

                          Yours faithfully,
                          NORTH COAST GEOMECHANICAL CONSULTANTS
