Estudio geotécnico in Navalagamella

In Navalagamella, the predominant ground is formed by granites, gneisses and other igneous rocks, which account for more than 70% of the soils in the area. This substrate is characterised by high strength and low compressibility, which provides optimal bearing capacity for most direct shallow foundations. Smaller levels of sandstones, conglomerates and flysch, as well as the occasional presence of shales and schists, may introduce local variations, but overall the rock mass offers stable conditions for construction, ideal for projects that require reliable bearing capacity.

Seismicity in Navalagamella is classified as very low, with only 4 recorded events over 30 years and a maximum magnitude of 1.9, which means there is no need for special considerations for structural design. The non-clayey substrate rules out the possibility of problems arising from expansivity. Additionally, there is no karst risk in this area, which simplifies the assessment of stability. The main geotechnical constraint for Navalagamella is the dominant presence of hard, compact soils, which enable safe and effective foundations.
