Types of ground in Laviana
In Laviana, the predominant materials include limestones, dolomites, marbles, as well as occasional occurrences of slates and schists, locally complemented by clays, peats and limited deposits of fine sands and silts. The formations are mostly of low or very low permeability, which implies limited circulation of groundwater except in shallow aquifers. The areas of limestones and dolomites can provide good bearing capacities, but it is essential to avoid founding on clays or peats due to their poor load-bearing capacity and high settlement potential.
Seismic activity in the municipality is considered high, with around 200 recorded events over 30 years, although the maximum magnitude observed (Mmax 4.2) does not exceed concerning thresholds and should be assessed in specific projects. The potential karst nature of the limestones requires a detailed verification of the existence of cavities or instabilities before carrying out any foundations. As it is composed of a non-clayey substratum, the risk of expansivity is ruled out, with karst being the most relevant geotechnical factor for the design of foundations in the area.
