Structural integrity failures can involve any of the following:

•    concrete;

•    masonry;

•    carpentry; or

•    foundations.

Defects related to site preparation can be caused by any of the following:

•    building on expansive soil or other defective soils incapable of properly supporting structures;

•    building on contaminated soils;

•    lack of a slab-on-grade foundation when the soils are acidic and can cause the deterioration of concrete; or building on improperly compacted soils, which can cause interior distress to cabinets and countertops, make doors difficult to open and cause structures to settle and cracking in stucco, drywall, plaster interior walls, windows, tile floors, concrete flatwork, slabs, and garage flooring.
