Estudio geotécnico in El Rosario

In the municipality of El Rosario, geotechnical studies reveal an absolute dominance of gravel and compact sands as the predominant soil type. This granular substrate, characterised by its high compactness, provides favourable bearing capacity for most direct foundation solutions, ensuring structural stability and allowing straightforward monitoring of settlements. The presence of extensive aquifers, although generally with moderate permeability and output, must be taken into account for the management of groundwater during the construction phase, particularly in deep excavations.

With regard to seismicity, 11 events have been recorded in the last 30 years with a maximum magnitude of 2.2, which implies moderate seismic activity, albeit of low intensity, without representing a critical constraint in structural design. The absence of clayey materials in the subsoil rules out the risk of expansiveness, and as no karst phenomena are detected, the granular substrate constitutes the main determining factor in the geotechnical behaviour of the area.
