14.0 SITE MANAGEMENT

To maintain the long term performance of the structure, good management of the
soil conditions and the development is vital throughout the life of the development.

The following are some specific comments with respect to site management.

          The ground surface around the perimeter of the buildings should slope away
           from the structure and fall to the stormwater system. Water should not be
           allowed to pond adjacent to the buildings.
          Founding soils should not be allowed to become saturated. Saturation of the
           on-site material will result in an increase in settlement potential.
          Service trenches under the buildings should be kept to a minimum.
          Footings should be poured immediately after excavation. If footings cannot
           be poured on the same day as excavation, a blinding layer of 50mm thickness
           is recommended.

15.0 LIMITATIONS

We have prepared this report for the Proposed Residence at 28 Kingfisher Drive,
Peregian Beach. The report is provided for the exclusive use of Stephen & Jane Struss,
for this project only and for the purposes outlined in the report. It should not be used
by, or relied upon, for other projects on the same or different sites or by a third party.
In preparing this report, we have relied upon information provided by the client or
their agents.

The results are indicative of the subsurface conditions on site only at the specific
testing locations. Subsurface conditions can change between test locations and the
design and construction should take the spacing of the testing and testing methods
adopted and the potential for variation between the test locations.

It is recommended that Pacific Geotech be engaged to provide advice and ensure
the development is undertaken in accordance with the assumptions made in writing
this report.

This is not to reduce the level of responsibility accepted by Pacific Geotech, but rather
to ensure that the parties who may rely on the information contained in this report are
aware of the responsibilities they assume in doing so.
