Estudio geotécnico in Bergondo

In Bergondo, the subsoil is predominantly formed by sandstones, conglomerates and flysch, covering 98,54% of the geological setting. This type of material generally provides a good bearing capacity, allowing conventional and shallow foundations, although it often has low permeability. It is important to carry out an appropriate geotechnical study to identify any possible superficial aquifers and to avoid problems caused by seepage or the rising of moisture in the affected strata.

Seismic activity in Bergondo is very low, with only a single recorded event and a maximum magnitude of 1,7, which rules out any relevant seismic constraints in structural design. In addition, the absence of clayey substrata eliminates any concern related to ground expansivity. The main technical aspect to be controlled will be the heterogeneity of the sedimentary materials and the location of any possible water-bearing levels, ensuring stable and durable foundations.
