Types of ground in Sant Vicenç de Montalt
In Sant Vicenç de Montalt, the geotechnical subsoil is dominated by granite, gneiss and other igneous rocks, which represent a very high frequency across the municipality. This lithology is characterised by providing a high bearing capacity, suitable for shallow or semi-deep foundations. Compact gravels and sands appear occasionally and may be used as bedding material provided that their compaction is adequate, although generally the igneous formations determine the overall behaviour of the ground.
Seismicity in the area is very low, with only 4 events over 30 years and a maximum magnitude of 2.2, so it does not constitute a relevant constraint in structural design. As the subsoil is not clayey, the risk of ground expansivity is ruled out. Therefore, the main aspect to consider in the geotechnical study of Sant Vicenç de Montalt is the presence of igneous materials and their possible surface alteration, which may influence the selection and design of the foundation.
