Types of ground in Fustiñana
In Fustiñana, fine sands and silts predominate, together with significant proportions of limestones, dolomites and marbles, as well as occasional deposits of sandstone, gravels and compact sands. This combination of materials suggests good bearing-capacity conditions for foundations, especially when they are founded on compact substrates. Calcareous materials can provide excellent conditions for shallow and deep foundations, although the presence of extensive aquifers and their high permeability means that account must be taken of the possible lowering of the groundwater table and the fluctuations during the geotechnical design.
This municipality exhibits high seismicity, with more than 150 recorded events over 30 years and a maximum magnitude that exceeds 5.2, which means seismic risk must be incorporated into any structural project. As the predominant area is calcareous, any possible presence of karst-related phenomena must be verified through specific investigations before defining the foundation. The absence of clayey soils rules out problems of expansivity, so the main geotechnical factor that governs projects in Fustiñana is the combination of seismic risk and potential karstification.
Fine sands and silts
Fine to very fine granular soils with medium to loose compacity. Typical of floodplains and coastlines. Although they can support light buildings, they are treacherous soils linked to water processes:
