This report presents the results of the geotechnical investigation carried out by Soil
Surveys Engineering Pty. Limited at the site of the proposed surf clubhouse
redevelopment at Noosa Heads SLSC; Hastings Street, Noosa Heads.

The report details the scope of the investigation works undertaken and provides
discussion on existing ground conditions and recommendations on geotechnical design
parameters to assist with the design and construction of the proposed redevelopment. In
addition, results from laboratory testing to assess the presence and severity of Acid
Sulfate Soils (ASS) with recommendations to the management and treatment of ASS
material.

Results from previous geotechnical investigation carried out by. Soil Surveys and
Exploration Pty Ltd (Report No. 90K/324, dated January 1991) in the area of the
proposed redevelopment have also been reviewed in this investigation. Where

appropriate, the information from the previous investigation have been included in this
report.

2.0 - SCOPE OF GEOTECHNICAL SERVICES

The scope of geotechnical services provided by Soil Surveys Engineering Pty. Limited
was directed towards evaluating the following items as detailed in our proposal 305-2325
dated 21° November, 2005.

f * Investigation of the subsurface profile by drilling, sampling and insitu testing with
, three (3) boreholes.
* Laboratory testing on selected samples to assess the geotechnical properties of the
subsurface material.
* Laboratory testing on samples obtained from three (3) boreholes to ‘a depth of 3.0m
to assess the Acid Sulfate Soil properties of the subsurface material.
* €ngineering analysis of site investigation and laboratory test results to evaluate:-
- Site preparation and earthworks recommendations
- Foundation parameters for design
- Retaining wall design recommendations
- Identification of Acid Sulfate Soils, (ASS)
- Available management and treatment options of the ASS material.
