         Depth = mm below ground level.
         P = blows per 100mm penetration with an approved 9kg penetrometer.
         Notation such as (SP) refers to the soil description to Table A1 AS1726 ‘Guide to the description

         Med. – medium, MW - Moderately weathered
         EW - extremely weathered, Plast. - Plasticity
         No recovery means unable to extract samples from the base of the bore hole because the soil
