MCU15/0034 - Approved Plans

 

 

LANDSCAPE SPECIFICATION NOTES:

EARTH WORKS
CLEARING: Clear areas indicated on the drawings of trees, stumps,
shrubs, slab foundations, paving and other surface debris.

EXCAVATION: Excavate or fill areas to dimensions as shown on the
drawings. All debris and material not suitable for backfill shall be removed
from the site. Ensure caution when excavating near services. Consolidate
areas of fill.

TREE PROTECTION:

Refer LP2.01 for Tree Retention Plan. All Existing Trees shown on the
drawings & located within 50m distance of the NBN compound are to be
retained as follows;

MARKING: Mark all trees to be retained with a zincanneal tag, painted
yellow. Secure the tag to the tree with a loose galvanised steel wire band.
At the end of the Contract, the Superintendent will check and remove the
tags.

TREE PROTECTION ZONES: Trees to be retained are to be protected
within tree protection zones (TPZs) as follows -

- The perimeter of TPZs must be outside the existing canopy of the
vegetation or as specified by the Arboricultural Consultant.

- All TPZs are to be fenced with Temporary Fencing Panels (TFP) or
Arboricultural Consultant approved alternative.

- No person, vehicles or machinery are to enter the TPZs except with the
written consent of Council

- Any underground service installations must be bored and utility authorities
must utilise a common trench where possible.

-No fuel, oil dumps or chemicals are allowed to be used or stored within
TPZs and the servicing and re-fueling of equipment and vehicles must be
carried out away from the root zones.

- No storage of material, equipment or temporary building is to take place
within the TPZs.

- Nothing whatsoever is to be attached to any tree including temporary
services wires, nails, screws or any other fixing device.

-TPZ fencing is not to be relocated without specific approval from the
Consulting Arboriculturist and the Ecologist or Landscape Architect.

EXCAVATION: Do not remove topsoil from within the drip line of trees to
be retained unless otherwise specified. If it is necessary to excavate within
the drip line, use hand methods such that root systems are preserved
intact and undamaged. Open up excavations under tree canopies for as
short a period as possible. Do not place spoil from excavations against
tree trunks, even for short periods. All care shall be taken to avoid damage
to the bark of trees.

TREE ROOT TREATMENT: Do not cut tree roots exceeding 50 mm
diameter unless permitted by the Superintendent. Where it is necessary to
cut tree roots, use a chain saw or similar means such that the setting does
not unduly disturb or rock the remaining root system. Immediately after
cutting, apply an approved fungicidal sealant to the cut surface.

BACKFILL to excavation around tree roots with an imported topsoil mixture
as specified. Add fertilizer at the rate of 0.5kg/m3 as specified in
PLANTING. Place the backfill in layers, each of 150 mm maximum depth,
solidly compacted to eliminate voids. Do not backfill around tree trunk to a
height greater than 150 mm above the original ground surface.

WATERING: Immediately after backfilling, thoroughly water the root zone
surrounding the tree.

DECOMPACTION: If the ground under the tree canopies has been unduly
compacted during the work under the Contract, for example by the
operations of heavy constructional plant, loosen the soil to a depth of

150 mm.

STOCKPILES: Do not stockpile materials near trees to be retained.

RETAINED TREES are to be assessed by a qualified arborist to identify
necessary pruning and tree surgery works. Where pruning of retained trees
iS required it is to be undertaken in accordance with AS4373/96 and the
"three-cut' method is to be utilised.

DAMAGE TO EXISTING TREES: Should any tree be damaged during the
work under the Contract, and if the Superintendent permits repair work to
be done, such repair work should be performed by an approved tree
surgeon at no extra cost.

REMOVAL: If repair work is considered impracticable, or is attempted and
fails, if so directed, remove the tree and root system, make good as
necessary, and either replace the tree or pay damages, as determined by
the Superintendent.

REPLACEMENT: Provide, plant and establish as part of the works, at no
extra cost to the Principal, a replacement tree of the same species and
similar size or as approved by the Superintendent.

DAMAGE ASSESSMENT: If replacement as part of the works is not
approved, pay for any tree removed pursuant to the above, damages
assessed by the Superintendent as the cost of replacement by others or to
a maximum cost of $3,000 unless otherwise specified.

CULTIVATION Cultivate all new planting areas to a minimum depth of
200mm.

TOPSOIL & MULCHING

TOPSOILING

TYPE : Imported topsoil from an approved supplier to AS 4419 2003.
Ensure soil is free of stones, weeds, sticks, roots and other deleterious
material toxic to plant growth.

DEPTH

Planting Areas: 150mm

SPREADING: Spread topsoil to the depths indicated and lightly compact so
that the surface is smooth, free from hollows and has even grade falls.
Spread the soil flush with any abutting surfaces generally, but allow for the
depth of mulch as necessary.

MULCHING

Place a mulch ring to each plant at time of planting.

TYPE: 25mm Forest Litter mulch to a depth of 75mm to all plants indicated
on the drawings. The mulch must be free from soil, weed growth and other
deleterious material harmful to the plants and finished 25mm below the
final surface levels of adjacent surfaces.

PLANTING

PLANT MATERIAL: Only use vigorous, well established plants of local
provenance with large healthy root systems that show no evidence of
having been restricted or damaged. Plants must be free from any pests
and disease, well hardened off and of a good form consistent with their
species or variety.

PLANT SIZES: Where a minimum plant height is specified in the "PLANT
SCHEDULE" the height shall be the vertical distance between the top of the
pot and the natural top of the plant whilst standing vertically in the pot.

SUBSTITUTIONS: Make no substitutions unless provided in writing.

Substitutions will not be approved if plants have not been made
available for inspection at the Nursery within 30 days of the Contract

being awarded.

REPLACEMENTS: Replace, with plants of the same specified type, quality
and size, any plants which fail or are damaged during the work under the
Contract.

WARRANTY: Furnish a warranty from the supplier attesting that the plants
are true to the specified species and type, and free from diseases, pests,
weeds and the like.

STORAGE: Wherever possible, plants shall be planted immediately after
delivery to the site. If this is not possible, keep them in good condition by
appropriate storage methods, or as may be directed. Prevent theft, drying
out or damage from any cause including frost, wind, sun, vermin, animals
and the like. Provide an on_site nursery for holding plant stock on site for
more than 48 hours, of sufficient size, with provision for watering.

POTTING ON: If directed, pot plants into larger soil-filled containers to
prevent them becoming root bound if there is an unforeseen delay. The
Contractor shall bear the cost of potting on. Do not carry out potting on
unless authorised.

POT SIZES: Supply plants in weed-free containers of the sizes specified in
the "PLANT SCHEDULE" shown on the drawings.

PLANT TYPES: Refer Plant Schedule

PLANTING: Water the plant and the planting areas thoroughly before
planting begins. The planting holes should be large enough to allow the
placement of the plant without damaging its root system. Remove plants
carefully from container ensuring minimum soil loss and root disturbance.
Root prune any root bound plants. Place plants centrally in their holes and
so that the top of the soil level in the pot is 20mm below the finished
surrounding soil level. Fertilize with a slow release tablet form of fertilizer.
Backfill all holes using imported topsoil as specified. Water plants
thoroughly.

Tree Planting & Staking: Refer DETAIL LDO1.

SPADE EDGING:

To each plant shown on the landscape plan provide a spade cut edge as
per detail LD02.

STOCK PROOF FENCING:

in the locations shown on the drawing, install stock proof fencing to DETAIL
LDO3. Provide Timber Edging to the base of fence and an 800mm wide
gate for Maintenance Access.

ESTABLISHMENT & MAINTENANCE

General

Landscaped areas shall be maintained by the Contractor from the time of
installation until the end of the Landscape Establishment Period. The
Landscape Establishment Period shall be 12 months, with two (2) weekly
visits for the first three (3) months, then monthly for remaining of nine (9)
month period. Maintenance shall include watering, fertilizing, mowing,
weeding, pruning, pest and disease management, plant replacement, site
drainage and general tidying of the treated areas.

 

WATERING

watering shall be carried out at sufficient frequency to ensure establishment of
the plants and to achieve the specified acceptance criteria. notwithstanding
this requirement, watering shall be carried out at the minimum frequency stated
in table 1 below. the stated rate of watering shall include any rainfall.

One watering shall be defined as the application of -

(a) for hydraulic seeding and mulching and grass seeding, 5l/m2 of water
in not less than one hour;

(b) for turfing, 101/m2 of water in not less than one hour;
(c) for planting, in accordance with table 2.

Watering of seeded and turfed areas shall be applied using a fine spray.
Watering of such areas in weeks 8 and 12 shall occur immediately after
fertilizing.

Watering of plants shall be directed at the base of the plant to thoroughly water
the root ball.

Watering shall not cause erosion or displacement of treated areas.

No water shall be allowed to spray onto, flow across or pond on paved areas
including roadways, bikeways and footpaths.

Pruning
Plants shall be pruned as necessary to promote vigorous new growth.

Pest and Disease Management

Plants shall be monitored for pest and disease incidence on a weekly
basis. Acceptable plant protection techniques shall be employed to
manage any infestations.

Site Drainage

All landscape areas shall be maintained with sound drainage principles
and the avoidance of runoff from the Site shall be enforced. Each irrigation
of the Site shall be over a period of time that allows water infiltration
(percolation) via the soil and does not produce run-off water.

Tidying

All landscaped areas shall be kept in a neat and tidy condition during the
Landscape Establishment Period.

Tidying shall include but not be limited to: the collection and removal of
litter, plant prunings and dead plants; removal of mulch from roads and
pathways; checking and adjusting plant support stakes and ties; and
making good any disturbance to the surface of mulches.

Plant Replacement

Replace at no extra cost, any plant which dies from the cause whatsoever
during the Establishment period. Plant replacements shall be of the same
size and species and equal to size and similar plants at the time of death.
