Types of ground in Ampuero
In Ampuero, the predominant subsoil is composed mostly of limestones, dolomites and marbles, followed by sandstones, conglomerates and flysch. In general, these lithologies provide a high bearing capacity for foundations, although they may alternate with less competent strata. By virtue of their nature, this type of ground is usually suitable for shallow (direct) foundations, provided that the continuity and homogeneity of the bedrock are ensured, avoiding layers of surface alteration or possible discontinuities.
The presence of carbonate terrains makes it essential to verify the existence of karst-related phenomena before carrying out any foundation, since possible hidden conduits or cavities can pose a significant structural risk. The area’s seismicity is notable, with 145 recorded events over the last 30 years and a maximum magnitude lower than 4. The subsoil presents no risk of expansivity, which facilitates the design of the foundation structure. As the main constraint, the required checking for the possible presence of karstification in the subsurface stands out.
