Dear Sir,

Structural Design Advice

Project: Proposed Pontoon, Piles and Catwalk
Client: NT & DE Murray
Address: Lot 40 (17) Wesley Court Noosa Heads

We, Empire Engineering Pty Ltd, advise that the proposal to construct the works described above
has been checked by us. When the works are constructed in accordance with the approved
drawings and in the location shown, the proposed works are structurally adequate for the
anticipated usage in this location and should comply with the design and safety provisions of the
Prescribed Tidal Works Code (Schedule 3 of the Coastal Protection and Management Regulation
2017), based on the design criteria and assumptions listed below:

Basis of Design Advice

e The works do not impose loads that would significantly affect existing structures.

e The works do not adversely affect the stability of the bed and banks in the near
vicinity of the structure.

e Pontoon identification to comply with Schedule 3 of the Coastal Protection and
Management Regulation 2017

e Structural design criteria:

Maximum Wave Height 400mm wind wave
300mm boat wake

Wind Classification N3

Maximum Current 1.5 m/s parallel to face of pontoon

Scour Reasonable scour effects from flood flows and tidal flows have
been considered

Debris Load To AS3962

Impact Load Minor loads without some damage to the structure

Max Vessel Size Berthed 16.6m length, 4.5m beam

Relevant Codes AS1170, AS3962 and AS3600, except where varied by the
Prescribed Tidal Work Code

Tethering System To be provided, where a tidal water level change resulting
from a 1% probability flood event results in pontoon detaching
from piles.

The design advice does not cover the construction or installation of the works on site. The
builder shall confirm the adequacy of the site conditions during installation and shall advise
the Engineer if variation from details shown on the drawings occur. No detailed site
investigation or studies have been carried out by us or provided to us. The design review
has been carried out on the basis of limited enquiry only. Pile depths shown are applicable if
founding in stiff clay or dense sand. There is some additional risk of failure should the
above design criteria be exceeded, or actual site conditions be inferior to those assumed. If
ground conditions other than those described above are encountered during construction or
seabed levels encountered are deeper than those shown on the drawings, further advice
should be sought.

This design advice relies on designs prepared by other consultants, but does not warrant
them.

The structure is to be built in accordance with the following referenced documentation,
using good building practice.
