Types of ground in Logroño
In Logroño, sandstones, conglomerates and flysch-type materials predominate, providing a subsoil of high bearing capacity, suitable for most solutions for shallow foundations. Fine sands and silts, as well as gravels and compact sands, appear occasionally, generally allowing good stability and low deformability. The presence of productive aquifers and highly permeable materials facilitates natural drainage, but may require specific considerations regarding groundwater level drawdown during construction.
Seismicity in Logroño is very low, with maximum magnitude values that do not require special reinforcement measures in routine structural design. The non-clayey subsoil eliminates the risk of expansiveness, allowing conventional foundation solutions without particular precautions against heave. The main constraint for geotechnical studies in the municipality lies in the appropriate characterisation of permeability and the management of the groundwater level associated with the local aquifers.
Sandstones, Conglomerates and Flysch
Sedimentary rocks formed by the cementation of fragments of other pre-existing rocks. They include sandstones (cemented sand), conglomerates (cemented gravels) and the rhythmic alternation of sandston

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:

Compact gravels and sands
High-compacity granular deposits, typically associated with old fluvial terraces (Ebro, Duero, Tajo, Guadalquivir rivers) and Pleistocene glacis. They have no cohesion (they are not clays) but their a
