Estudio geotécnico in Paderne de Allariz

In Paderne de Allariz, the soils are predominantly composed of sandstones, conglomerates and flysch, which implies the presence of detrital materials with variable characteristics. These strata usually provide adequate bearing capacity, although the formations tend to be fairly compact and have low permeability, which limits infiltration and the development of deep aquifers. It will be necessary to consider the localised presence of smaller bodies of water when defining the most appropriate foundation type.

Seismic activity in the municipality is very low, with only 7 events over 30 years and a recorded maximum magnitude of 3.2, so it does not represent a relevant constraint for geotechnical engineering. As the substrate is not clayey, the risks of expansivity can be ruled out. Consequently, the main constraint for the geotechnical study will be the precise characterisation of the strength and continuity of the detrital materials present.
