Why Irving Foundations Fail
Forensic Soil Report for Zip 75039
The Stephen-Urban land complex, 1 to 4 percent slopes underlying Irving is notorious for its high Plasticity Index. This 'silent engine' breaks foundations from the bottom up.
Critical limit is 25.0.
Vertical movement potential.
Why Shallow Repairs Fail vs. Our Solution
Visual Proof: While concrete cylinders sit in the "Active Zone" (expanding/shrinking clay), our steel piers penetrate until they hit load-bearing strata (refusal).
Engineer's Action Plan for Irving
Active Zone Management
With a Plasticity Index of 32.0, this soil expands with enough force to lift a 40-ton slab. The priority is bypassing this "active zone" using steel piers locked into load-bearing strata.
- Recommendation: Deep steel piers.
- Focus: Soaker hoses in summer.
Standard piering methods are effective if depth is verified.
