What matters for concreting & paving in Wollongong

Wollongong bans absorption systems outright on land with slope instability, loose sand, collapsing clays, rock and shale, slopes over 15 percent or extensive paving, unless an engineer designs it and a geotechnical engineer with local knowledge signs off. Where they are allowed, roof water must first pass through a 5,000 litre rainwater tank, and the trench must sit at least 3 m from boundaries and 5 m from all buildings.

Wollongong DCP 2009 has dedicated chapters for the Illawarra Escarpment and for geotechnical assessment of slope instability. The escarpment controls apply to land at or above the RL 50 metre contour with a 150 metre buffer. On that land a development application must address slope stability, cut and fill volumes and retaining wall design, and a geotechnical report is typically required.

The record daily fall at the Wollongong University gauge is 316.0 mm on 18 August 1998, and the record August monthly total is 763.8 mm in the same year. Mount Ousley, at the escarpment, took more than 445 mm in that event, which triggered 148 landslides and cut access to the city for up to 24 hours.
