JUAREZ-CAMARENA, Moisés; AUVINET-GUICHARD, Gabriel y MENDEZ-SANCHEZ, Edgar. Geotechnical Zoning of Mexico Valley Subsoil. Ing. invest. y tecnol. [online]. 2016, vol.17, n.3, pp.297-308. ISSN 2594-0732.
A new geotechnical zoning map for the subsoil of Mexico Valley is presented. This proposal is based on a Geographic Information System for Geotechnical Borings (GIS-GB), which contains over 10000 soil profiles. In addition to the geotechnical information, available topographic and geological data on the studied area were taken into account. Geostatistical techniques were used to assess the spatial distribution of the thickness of the lacustrine clay deposits within the area down to the so-called deep deposits. As a result, a contour map was obtained that was used to update the current geotechnical zoning map for Mexico Valley. It has been proposed to include this new map into the Building Code for the Federal District (Mexico City).
