Types of ground in Community of Madrid
The Community of Madrid lies in the geographical centre of the Iberian Peninsula. The ground is varied, with the Sierra de Guadarrama to the north, characterised by its granitic soils, and the Tajo Basin to the south-east, where alluvial sediments predominate. These geological features are decisive for geotechnical studies, as they condition the bearing capacity and stability of the soil.
In areas such as the Corredor de Henares, clayey soils require special considerations in the foundations, whereas in the south-west, alongside the Guadarrama river, fluvial deposits favour softer conditions. The geological diversity of Madrid calls for a detailed analysis to ensure the feasibility of construction projects.
Granite, gneiss and igneous rocks
Igneous and metamorphic rocks with very high mechanical strength. They form the most competent and stable substrate. They predominate in the Sistema Central, in Galicia, and in outcrops of the Hercyni
