Expansive clay soil around the structure of your home will tend to place a lot of pressure on the foundation walls. How much pressure it exerts depends upon factors like:
-The soil type surrounding the foundation.
-The amount of water in the soil.
-How deep underground the foundation sits.
-Temperature.
Hydrostatic pressure, frost and expansive clay soil can all put enough pressure against foundation walls to cause them to bow or even to collapse.
Downspouts and gutters also may contribute to foundation wall issues by permitting large amounts of water to accumulate in the soil surrounding your home or commercial building.
