Types of ground in Villafufre
In Villafufre, substrates of limestones, dolomites and marbles predominate, together with frequent outcrops of fine sands, silts and, to a lesser extent, sandstones, conglomerates and flysch. These rock formations, fundamentally carbonate, usually provide an adequate bearing capacity for foundations, especially if compact, unaltered zones are identified. However, the ancillary presence of gypsum, anhydrite and salts implies that there may be a risk of dissolution, which requires careful analysis before proceeding with the foundation works.
Seismicity in Villafufre is classified as notable, with 145 events in the last 30 years and a maximum magnitude of 4, which means the seismic influence must be assessed in the structural design procedures. In addition, the karstic nature of part of the substrate demands rigorous verification to rule out voids or unstable zones prior to any foundation work. The non-clayey substrate eliminates the risk of significant expansivity; the main focus is therefore on stability against karst processes and the dissolution of salts in soils.
