5.0   LIMITATIONS

      We have prepared this report for the use of Karl Yunker and Sparks Architects,                 for
      design purposes in accordance with generally accepted geotechnical engineering
      practices. No other warranty, expressed or implied, is made as to the professional advice
      included in this report. This report has not been prepared for use by parties other than
      Karl Yunker and Sparks Architects.                It may not contain sufficient information for
      purposes of other parties or for other uses.


      Soil Surveys Engineering consider that a documentation review service (during the
      design phase and prior to construction) to verify that the intent of geotechnical
      recommendations is properly reflected in the design, along with construction inspections,
      forms     a   very   important       component    of   the   geotechnical   engineering    design
      service/process.


      This statement is not intended to reduce the level of responsibility accepted by Soil
      Surveys Engineering in accordance with our commission, but rather to ensure that all
      parties who may rely on this report are aware of the responsibilities each assumes in
      doing so and the risks they accept should they decline to have Soil Surveys Engineering
      carry out a geotechnical documentation review and geotechnical construction inspections.


      The geotechnical review ensures geotechnical risks to our Client and their project are
      minimised at the design and tender stage of the project. Further, with Soil Surveys
      Engineering being commissioned to carry out geotechnical construction inspections, an
      opportunity at the time of construction to confirm any assumptions made in the
      preparation of the report and allow the effect of any normally occurring variation in ground
      conditions to be assessed with respect to construction becomes available.
