Estudio geotécnico in Constantí

In Constantí, soils of compacted gravels and sands predominate, characterised by a high bearing capacity and stability for traditional direct foundations. These materials offer suitable behaviour for building works, facilitating the construction of isolated footings or foundation slabs and enabling good drainage thanks to their particle size distribution, although local groundwater levels may condition the design because they are potential shallow aquifers.

The municipality’s seismicity is very low, with only 5 recorded events in the last 30 years and a maximum magnitude of 1.9, which minimises structural requirements in terms of seismic action. The subsoil is not clayey, which eliminates the risk of expansiveness and possible differential settlements. The main factor to take into account is the checking of any potential shallow aquifers before carrying out the foundation works, since other issues, such as karstic features or problematic soils, are not present in the area.
