Subject: Official Information request - MBIE Research & Technical Definition of 'Rubble' in regard to foundations

Dear Ministry of Business, Innovation & Employment,
Given that update 10 of the Technical Guidance documents found
on your website here: https://www.building.govt.nz/building-co... contains reference to 'rubble' foundations, how does MBIE define rubble in reference to a foundation?

Secondly, what technical research has MBIE conducted with regard to the solutions provided in the guidance and their applicability to rubble foundations? Please provide copies of the research undertaken along with any documents where MBIE has examined rubble type foundations, or relied on others research, around the subject of rubble foundations.

Yours faithfully,

Jake Preston
