Why foundations move in Eagleville
The soil this town is built on
Mapped soil inside Eagleville is recorded as disturbed urban ground, so the useful reading is the wider one. Across Rutherford County the USDA survey is Gladeville at about 14 percent of the survey, with Talbott and Rock outcrop alongside it. The texture split is 80 percent clay and 5 percent silt. The weighted linear extensibility figure, which is how much the soil changes volume between wet and dry, sits at 4.58 percent, a moderate shrink swell rating. Karst features are mapped in this area, so voids and sinkhole risk are part of the inspection.
Rain, drought and the calendar
Middle Tennessee clay swells in a wet spring and shrinks in a dry summer, and a foundation moves with it. That shrink swell cycle is the seasonal load these footings carry.
What these homes were built like
The 2000s put up more homes than any other decade, 81 of them, and the median year built is 1992. Pre 1980 construction accounts for 122 homes here, and original drainage is the first thing checked on those. Of the owner occupied homes, 74 percent carry a mortgage.
