Can anyone please give me an insight into what a geotechnical investigation report for the siting of a batch plant should contain or looks like. I need to prepare one soon. Thanks

you need to ask the contractor for more information, size and weight of equipment and materials, need for concrete slab, size and weight of any silos or tanks, any temporary grading or paving necessary? fencing? erosion and dust mitigation? How long will the batch plant be in operation?
 
With all that load info, usually the same sort of investigation you would do for a silo or masonry chimney would suit.
