       On-ground slabs should be fully dowelled and joints between slabs sealed to control differential movements
       and minimise under-slab moisture changes. It is suggested that floor slabs be tied into shallow footings to
       prevent relative movement. However, if slabs are not tied in, they should be detailed to enable movement,
       independent of foundations, fixtures, etc.

       5.9       Vibration

       If strong vibration (e.g. due to vibrating sheet pile installation, or heavy machinery etc) and/or significant
       earthquake have the potential to induce significant, non-uniform settlement in the very loose sands.
