Attachment 3 Soil Test Report

4.0 FINDINGS:

The soil profiles encountered are shown on the attached borelog sections.

No water table was encountered during our testing program.

The sandy soils encountered are susceptible to collapse when unconfined. This may effect
excavations and result in additional earthworks and increased concrete volumes. Temporary shoring

or Forma-Tube may be required to retain the sands prior to concreting.

The samples classified on-site were assessed as having negligible plasticity, therefore laboratory
testing was considered unnecessary.

We have assessed the expected differential movement of the soil profiles encountered to be the
equivalent of a site with a Ys of less than 20mm.
