Estudio geotécnico in Alberic

In Alberic, fine sand and silts predominate, followed by gravels and compact sands, which provides particular characteristics regarding bearing capacity and its response to foundations. The occasional presence of limestones, dolomites and marbles suggests the possible occurrence of competent rock masses, but in most of the area, the dominant lithology implies moderate bearing capacities and special attention to potential differential settlements. The presence of aquifers close to the surface may condition the choice of foundation type, particularly in areas with a high presence of water.

Seismicity in Alberic is very low, with only 8 events over 30 years and a maximum magnitude of 3, so it does not represent a significant factor for structural design. However, since calcareous formations exist in the subsoil, it is essential to verify the existence of karst-related phenomena before carrying out any foundation, as they could affect both stability and the choice of the most suitable support system. The main constraint in the area is the heterogeneity of the ground and the potential presence of voids associated with karst.
