JOB NUMBER    21/0716      SITE CLASSIFICATION REPORT
CLIENT        CHRIS BENTLEY
SITE LOCATION PROPOSED RESIDENCE,
              11 SENEGAL RISE, DOONAN
REPORT DATE   10/07/2021

1.   INTRODUCTION
     The purpose of this report is to classify the subject allotment in accordance with Australian Standard
     2870 - 2011 'Residential Slabs and Footings'. From this classification a footing system can be
     recommended for the structure so as to allow adequate performance of the footings under the soil
     conditions determined at the site.
     Trees: There are several small to large sized trees on and adjacent to the proposed site. Global
     Testing recommends an experienced arborist be commissioned to quantify the existing size,
     location, predicted maximum height and type of these trees to aid in the design process. It is the
     responsibility of the designing engineer to apply the principals of AS2870-2011 Appendix H
     "Guide to Design of Footings for Trees". The classification herein excludes the effect of trees on
     the site.
