This report is written for the Client's Principal Technical Adviser on a
construction project, since this professional is responsible for both directing
the project and investigating its effects on the neighbourhood.
The Principal Technical Adviser is urged to understand the value of an
adequate and timely investigation of the site and the underlying ground, in
order to judge whether or not the Client's proposed investment is exposed to
unacceptable risk and represents value for money.
Ground is the construction element about which least is known, and which
behaves differently according to how it is used. Appropriately qualified and
experienced technical advisers are necessary to make an adequate
assessment of the hazards in the ground and how best to exploit the ground
for the benefit of the project. The risks arising from hazards in the ground
may severely limit the scope of the project and its financial success.
