Pittwater Rd New Multi Residential - Site visit & evaluation of retaining walls.
Due to the significant earthworks required for the proposed development, AscentGeo carried out our geotechnical assessment in stages to correspond with the clients requirements and the various stages of the Council DA process.
Our involvement included but was not limited to initial site visit and preparation of Geotechnical Assessment Report, ground testing, incorporating hand operated boreholes and penetrometer tests, as well as mechanically drilled boreholes was carried out to ascertain the engineering properties of soil and rock to depths well below the proposed basement.
The project was approved by Northern Beaches Council, and is currently under construction. AscentGeo are attending the site regularly to certify foundation materials for footings and to provide consulting services at various project hold points.
