Types of ground in Carcastillo
In Carcastillo, the subsoil is dominated by sandstones, conglomerates and flysch formations, comprising almost 70% of the ground. These materials stand out for their good mechanical competence, which translates into a considerable bearing capacity for shallow foundations. The compacted gravels and sands, although present in smaller quantities, also provide good performance in terms of stability and settlements, whereas horizons of fine sands, silts and hard clays are occasional and very rarely condition the usual foundation solutions.
Seismic activity in the Carcastillo area is very low, with only one recorded event in 30 years and a maximum magnitude of 1.5, so it is not considered a relevant factor in structural design. Since the dominant subsoil is not clayey, the risk associated with expansiveness is ruled out. Therefore, the main geotechnical aspect to assess in this municipality lies in the accurate characterisation of the ground’s strength and homogeneity, especially in areas where surface deposits of sands and silts appear.
