Loamy soils are usually a very stable soil that shows little change with the increase or decrease of moisture temperature. The primary concern with foundations built on loamy soils is erosion. When soils underneath your foundation erode, they may begin to be inappropriate strata for sustaining the weight of a foundation and home structure.
Soils rich in clay and silt have the greatest potential to damage a foundation. Clay absorbs water easily, expanding in volume as it becomes more saturated. So-called “expansive clays” can cause foundations to crack, heave and shift. When clay soils dry out, they shrink and crack, leaving gaps around a house where water from the […]
Water passes through sandy soils rather than being absorbed. This fact makes sandy soils very stable. Instead of expanding as they absorb moisture and contracting as they dry out, sandy soils maintain a fairly consistent volume and density. Because of their stability and good load-bearing qualities, sandy soils are less likely to shift and settle, […]
