What Soil Is Morrisville Built On?
The most common soil in the USDA sample inside Morrisville is Chewacla, a deep dark yellowish brown clay loam. Of the five points the USDA sampled inside Morrisville, two are Chewacla and one is Carbonton. The other two points fall on ground the survey does not name as a natural soil, such as urban land or water. The wider county survey for Wake County leads with Pacolet, at about a tenth of the land, then Cecil, Wedowee and Rawlings. The USDA rates the sample inside Morrisville moderate for swelling and shrinking, which means it swells noticeably when it gets wet and shrinks as it dries.
Chewacla is a deep soil that formed from sediment laid down by streams, usually found on stream flood plains. Its top layer is loam, and under that is dark yellowish brown clay loam. Loam is soil with a mix of sand, silt and clay. It stays wet near the surface for part of the year.
Carbonton is a moderately deep soil that formed in place as the sandstone, siltstone and shale beneath it weathered. Soft, weathered bedrock lies within a few feet of the surface. Its top layer is silt loam, and under that is reddish brown silty clay. It stays wet near the surface for part of the year.
What It Means for Your Home
- FoundationsClay in this ground can push on a foundation in wet months and pull back in dry ones, and over time that can crack walls and let part of a house settle. Look for cracks that step up through brick or block, and doors and windows that stick. See foundation repair.
- Crawl spacesClay stays damp after long rains and adds moisture to the air under a house, which can lead to musty odors, mold and wood rot over time. Look for sagging floors and deteriorating insulation. See crawl space repair and crawl space encapsulation.
- Floor framingWhen the ground under the piers shifts, the beams and joists above can move out of level, and damp air can soften the wood. Look for sagging floor joists and rotted floor joists. See framing repair.
- ConcreteClay that swells and shrinks can lift and drop driveways, walks and patios unevenly. Look for a cracked driveway and raised slab edges you can trip on. See concrete leveling.
Soil survey: USDA NRCS Soil Data Access (SSURGO), sdmdataaccess.nrcs.usda.gov. Inside Morrisville, the survey maps Chewacla and Carbonton series.
