Estudio geotécnico in Cabrils

In Cabrils, soils formed by granite, gneiss and other igneous rocks predominate, accounting for more than 80% of the local subsoil, accompanied occasionally by compact gravel and sand. This solid substrate with very low permeability ensures excellent bearing capacity, which simplifies the selection of direct foundation systems. In some places, the surface formations may support small aquifers; however, their impact on the stability of the foundations is usually limited due to the low presence of cohesive layers or soft soils.

Seismicity in Cabrils is very low, with only 5 events over 30 years and a low maximum magnitude, so the seismic influence is negligible in the structural design. The non-clayey substrate rules out risks associated with expansive soils, and the absence of karst eliminates concern about subsidence or dissolution. Therefore, the main factor to consider is integrating the foundations with rock formations, ensuring adequate execution on competent materials and minimising special interventions.
