Types of ground in Asturias
Asturias, located in the north of Spain, has a complex topography dominated by the Cantabrian Mountains. With predominantly calcareous soils and slates, the counties of Siero and Llanera represent significant geotechnical variability. These areas reveal characteristics of clayey and alluvial soils which require detailed analysis for construction. A geotechnical study in areas such as the Fuentes del Narcea Nature Park is essential to assess the ground’s stability and bearing capacity.
Phyllites and schists
Metamorphic rocks characterised by their foliation (parallel planes of weakness or slaty cleavage). Very common in Galicia, Asturias, the north of León, Extremadura and Sierra Morena. They are highly
