Structural pattern of subsidence in an urban area of the southeastern Mexico Basin inferred from electrical resistivity tomography

Abstract: La mayor parte de la zona urbana de la Cuenca de México está construida sobre los sedimentos de los antiguos lagos de Chalco, Xochimilco, México, Texcoco, Xaltocan y Zumpango, lo cual ofrece poca resistencia a las obras civiles que se asientan sobre ella. Adicionalmente, los requerimientos para el abastecimiento de agua potable para la población han generado la sobreexplotación de los acuíferos, exacerbando el fenómeno de subsidencia y el colapso de edificios, unidades habitacionales y caminos. Con la finalida… Show more

“…One of the most used non-invasive techniques for subsoil exploration is geophysics and, more specifically, electrical resistivity tomography, in both two and three dimensions [15][16][17][18][19][20][21], and metrological perspectives of tomography in civil engineering [22]. In recent years, this method has proven to be an efficient tool, not only to monitor wall degeneration [23], but also to detect other types of problems in building foundations, such as subsoil degradation [14,24,25].…”
