            commissioned by Tom Harrington on behalf of SCG Consulting Engineers.

            The geotechnical investigation included four (4) auger boreholes with Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) testing
            and laboratory testing of selected samples undertaken in general accordance with PTG’s proposal PTGT/01451/Rev0,
            ‘AS1726:2017-Geotechnical Site Investigations’ and ‘AS1289-Methods of Testing for Engineering Purposes’.

            reporting on the following:
            » Site description including detailed bored logs, site images and marked site plan with approximate test locations;
            »    Review of regional geology;
            »    Subsurface conditions, including groundwater (if encountered);
            »    Acid Sulfate Soils (ASS): Actual Acid Sulfate Soils (AASS) and/or Potential Acid Sulfate Soils (PASS) (if
                 encountered);
            »    Site classification and predicted ground surface movement (ys) in accordance with AS 2870-2011;
            »    Allowable bearing pressures for high level footings and estimated settlements;
            »    Suitable pile types, ultimate base bearing, skin frictions and estimated settlement (if required);
            »    Retaining wall design parameters;
            »    Any other geotechnical issues identified that would need management (if any).
