Why foundations move in Greenbrier
What is under the ground here
Sampled inside the Greenbrier city limits, the USDA survey reads Dickson at about 40 percent of the survey, with Hamblen and Sengtown alongside it. By texture that survey runs 25 percent clay and 73 percent silt. The weighted linear extensibility figure, which is how much the soil changes volume between wet and dry, sits at 2.95 percent, a low shrink swell rating. Clay content is 20 percent inside the city and 25 percent countywide. Karst features are mapped in this area, so voids and sinkhole risk are part of the inspection.
The seasonal cycle here
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.
The age of the housing
Most of what we walk into here was built in the 2000s, 768 homes, around a median build year of 1995. 596 of those homes predate 1980, so drainage and footing condition get a close look at an inspection. Mortgages sit on 77 percent of the owner occupied homes in Greenbrier.
