Subsoil zoning in southern Tamaulipas

Studying the subsoil is essential in the design and construction of infrastructure. The objective of this work was to zone the subsoil using geographic information systems towards a geotechnical map of southern Tamaulipas.

The objective of this work was to zone the subsoil using geographic information systems towards a geotechnical map of southern Tamaulipas. The spatial data were integrated from 347 standard penetration test (SPT) boreholes, derived from 119 geotechnical studies conducted from 2011 to 2018. The generated information enabled the construction of 20 referenced analysis units for the metropolitan area of Altamira, Tampico and Ciudad Madero, developing a zoning map of the subsurface into geotechnical groups: zone A: clays, silts and sands; zone B: sandy clays; zone B’: highly plastic clays and zone C: clayey sand. The information generated through the analysis units and zoning map is projected to be useful for subsequent geotechnical exploration studies. El estudio del subsuelo es fundamental en el diseño y construcción de infraestructuras. El objetivo de este trabajo consistió en zonificar el subsuelo mediante sistemas de información geográfica hacia un mapa geotécnico del sur de Tamaulipas. Se integraron los datos espaciales, obtenidos de 347 sondeos de penetración estándar (SPE), provenientes de 119 estudios geotécnicos realizados de 2011 a 2018. La información generada permitió la construcción de 20 unidades de análisis referenciadas para el área conurbada de Altamira, Tampico y Ciudad Madero, con las que se desarrolló un mapa de zonificación del subsuelo en grupos geotécnicos: zona A: arcillas, limos y arenas; zona B: arcillas arenosas; zona B’: arcillas de alta plasticidad y zona C: arena arcillosa. La información originada a través de las unidades de análisis y el mapa de zonificación, se proyecta con utilidad para estudios posteriores de exploración geotécnica.
