in accordance with Australian Standard 2870 - 2011, 'Residential Slabs and Footings,
Construction'.
The Target Stratum for the foundation of the structure at location BH1 is the SAND at
existing ground level.
The Target Stratum for the foundation of the structure at location BH2 is the SAND at a
depth of 1100mm below existing ground level.
The Target Stratum for the foundation of the structure at location BH3 is the SAND
(FILL) at a depth of 600mm below existing ground level.
The Target Stratum for the foundation of the structure at location BH4 is the SAND
(FILL) at a depth of 1000mm below existing ground level.
“It is believed that the encountered fill has been placed a great number of years”.
It is the designing engineer’s responsibility to address the potential influence of any trees
present on or around the proposed building site.
If any further fill is placed over the existing ground, the structure shall be piered through
the fill into the existing material. Further note that the placement of reactive material as
fill or cutting of the site may change the site’s classification.
“Information has been supplied stating that this site may be under laid with deep settling
marine clays”.
4. SOIL PROFILE
Refer to Soil Profile Report for borelog information
Whilst every effort has been made to ensure that the borelogs carried out at the subject allotment
are indicative of the soil profile over the site any discrepancy between the profile detailed in
the borelogs and that observed during construction shall be referred to Global Testing for
immediate attention.
5. MATERIALS LABORATORY TEST RESULTS
Soil Laboratory testing was not carried out on samples of the soil taken from the site because
the clay content of the material was too low for Shrink-Swell movements to be critical in the
classification of the soil profile. Determination of the classification for the site in this situation
is based upon results from Dynamic Cone Penetrometer testing performed over the site.
