BLUE CARE SUNRISE BEACH
ENGINEERING REPORT FOR DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION



4.            GEOTECHNICAL INVESTIGATION

A preliminary site investigation was undertaken by Cardno Bowler.

Investigative fieldwork was carried out on 7th May 2008 and included the drilling of ten
boreholes at various locations across the site. The material encountered at the ten
boreholes was Sand or Silty Sand, poorly graded. Approximately 70% of the soil particle
size grading is between 0.150 - 0.300 mm in diameter. Soil was generally found to be
moist and loose to medium dense.

The investigation found that the soils on the site generally exhibit good engineering
properties, provided they are adequately compacted and confined.

The full report outlines factual data pertinent to the site and gives an overall indication of
the geotechnical conditions. The report is included in Appendix B.
