Sam Hopper – Slope Stability Assessment and Geotechnical Report - Proposed Residence, 24 Arakon Crescent, Sunshine Beach




1.0 INTRODUCTION

    1.1 General
This report presents the results of the geotechnical investigation carried out by Soil Surveys
Engineering Pty Limited on the 26th February and 5th March, 2018, for the Proposed Residence
at 24 Arakon Crescent, Sunshine Beach.

The report was carried out following authorisation from Sam Hopper on 20th February, 2018.

The objectives of this investigation were to assess subsurface conditions at the site in
accordance with the Scope of Services detailed in Section 1.3.

    1.2 Reason for this Report
It is understood that given the site location and Noosa Shire Council regulations, a slope
stability assessment is required for the proposed development.

    1.3 Scope of Report
The objective of this study would be to undertake a geotechnical investigation and site mapping
to assess the existing geotechnical conditions to provide:-

          A slope stability assessment of the overall site, in accordance with:-
                 o     National Disaster Mitigation Program (NDMP), Landslide Risk Management
                       (LRM) Guidelines, Practice Notes and Geoguidelines as published in the
                       “Australian Geomechanics Journal” Volume 42 No. 1 March, 2007.
                 o     State Planning Policy July, 2014-SPP.
                 o     Noosa Shire Council Noosa Plan, 2017.
          An investigation for the stormwater management plan, including permeability and
           infiltration information.
          Foundation design parameters.
          Retaining wall design parameters.

    1.4 Controls and Procedures
This report has been prepared in accordance with:-

          National Disaster Mitigation Program (NDMP), Landslide Risk Management (LRM)
           Guidelines, Practice Notes and Geoguidelines as published in the “Australian
           Geomechanics Journal” Volume 42 No. 1 March 2007.
          State Planning Policy July 2014-SPP.
          The Noosa Plan, 2017, Part 7, Landslide Overlay.

    1.5 Proposed Development
It is understood that the proposed development is to consist of the construction of a stepped
three level residence with the garage level and ground floor level partially cut into the rear of the
site.
