desplante de cimentacion

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Ships, Sailing, Maritime load capacity report
Does it just mean "foundation"?

"Sin embargo para fines de información y cálculo, inicialmente se calculan capacidades de carga para el desplante de cimentación profunda mediante la inclusión de pilotes a profundidad de 20 hasta 25 m con respecto al nivel actual del terreno , que fue la profundidad explorada. "

Proposed translations

laying of foundation

Basically cimentación means "foundation laying" (Oxford Dictionary Sp-En), but desplante can also mean "foundation"

In the Larousse Dictionaory, "desplantar" means to uproot, take away, etc.

Now, would that make sense in this context? Here we are talking about cargo capacities, so in this specific case it would be the remova of the deep foundation through the inclusion of 20 to 25 meter piles with regards to the current level of the land.

Why do these piles exist? Because of the exploration in the depths of the foundation of the ocean (sea) having created these relatively high piles.
