Estudio geotécnico in Teulada

In Teulada, the geological setting is dominated by limestones, dolomites and marbles, which represent the majority of the subsoil. These materials generally provide a high bearing capacity for foundations, although the scant presence of fine sands, silts, sandstones and conglomerates indicates some local heterogeneity in the soils. The low permeability of these formations requires paying particular attention to surface and subsurface drainage, although it may also contribute to the stability of the foundations provided the local ground conditions are verified.

Seismicity in the municipality is very low, with barely four events over 30 years and an Mmax of 3,1, so seismic risk is not a relevant factor in structural design. However, since the area is a calcareous environment with karst potential, it is essential to carry out a detailed check for the possibility of cavities or dissolution before proceeding with foundation works, as this is the main geotechnical constraint in the area. The non-clayey subsoil rules out swelling potential risks.
