Estudio geotécnico in Navaconcejo

In Navaconcejo, the geological substrate is dominated by granite, gneiss and other igneous rocks, representing practically the entire ground. These materials typically provide a high bearing capacity, offering favourable conditions for the direct foundation of buildings, provided that the analyses confirm the integrity and homogeneity of the rock mass. The low frequency of bodies of water indicates that any potentially softer areas should be identified in a detailed geotechnical campaign, especially near watercourses or depressions.

Seismic activity in Navaconcejo is notable, with 56 recorded events in the last 30 years (Mmax 3.1). However, the non-clayey substrate rules out the risk of expansivity in the dominant ground types, thereby reducing uncertainties associated with volumetric changes. The main geotechnical constraint in this municipality will be to ensure a detailed characterisation of the rock mass and the detection of any potentially altered or fractured zones that could influence the foundations.
