Estudio geotécnico in Increasing

In Crecente, the predominant geological substrate is composed of sandstones, conglomerates and flysch, which determines a competent rock base for building. These formations, together with the occasional presence of slates and schists, provide a good bearing capacity for shallow foundations, while areas of water body mass require specific analysis due to their lower stability. The general permeability of the ground is low, which implies limited mobility of groundwater, but it also makes it necessary to check surface drainage to prevent any build-up that could affect the foundation works.

Seismicity in Crecente is very low, with only 6 recorded events over 30 years and a maximum magnitude of 2.6, so seismic risk is minimal and does not significantly condition the structural design. The non-clayey subsoil rules out the risk of expansiveness in foundation soils, which supports the stability of the structures. The main analysis to take into account is the homogeneity of the materials and the possible influence of surface aquifer areas on foundation performance.
