Estudio geotécnico in Oza-Cesuras

In Oza-Cesuras, soils formed by sandstone, conglomerates and flysch predominate, accompanied in smaller proportions by shales and schists. These lithologies generally exhibit good mechanical characteristics and low deformability, which favours an adequate bearing capacity for shallow or semi-deep direct foundations. However, the low permeability of these materials may encourage the accumulation of water at shallow depths, so it is recommended to consider drainage in civil and industrial works.

Seismicity in the area is very low, with only three recorded events over 30 years and a maximum magnitude of less than 3, which implies a very low seismic risk for the design of structures. The non-clayey substrate rules out the risk of expansiveness, which simplifies the choice of the foundation system. In short, the main precaution in Oza-Cesuras lies in the appropriate management of subsurface water due to the impermeability of the ground.
