4.4 Subsurface Conditions
Detailed descriptions of the subsurface conditions encountered in the boreholes are provided in the
borehole reports attached in Appendix A, along with definition sheets which describe terms and
abbreviations used on the reports. The subsurface conditions encountered in the boreholes are
summarised as follows:
Pavement (pavers/synthetic matting) – 20 mm to 60 mm thick; then
Fill – comprising mostly very loose, silty and gravelly sand to between 0.4 m and 1.2 m BGL;
overlying
Aeolian Sands – comprising poorly graded sands that were loose to depths of between 1.1 m and
2.5 m BGL in boreholes BH2 and BH3; then becoming medium dense (from 0.2 m BGL in BH1)
and increasing to dense below depths of about 3.1 to 4.1 m BGL.
