3.0 SITE ASSESSMENT AND DATA COLLECTION

    3.1 Field Investigation
Due to the existing structure on the site, the subsurface conditions were investigated by the
drilling and sampling one borehole at the front of the property (BH1) using our EVH1750 drilling
rig and undertaking two hand augers (HA, HA3) at the rear of the property where rig access
was not possible. In addition, dynamic cone penetrometer tests were carried out adjacent to
the borehole and hand auger as well as at one other location (DCP4).

A site inspection by a Senior Engineering Geologist, experienced in the assessment of slope
instability, was also carried out.

The description of the materials encountered in the field investigation is subjective, based on
the experience and judgement of the rig/site supervisor and some variations in the description,
from the actual material type may occur.

The soil classification descriptions, field and laboratory testing were carried out in general
accordance with the following Australian Standards:-

          AS 1726                             Geotechnical Site Investigations
          AS 1289                             Methods of Testing Soils for Engineering Purposes

Notes relating to this report, borehole records and a site plan showing the location of the
boreholes are included in the Appendices.

    3.2 Site Location
The site is located at 40 Park Crescent, Sunshine Beach, also known as Lot 599 on RP48112
(refer Figure 2). Access to the front of the site is off Park Crescent and to the rear of the site via
a narrow easement off Webb Road from the north (refer Figure 3).
