Key facts
- Clay-rich shales and soils can swell to 1.5 to 2 times their dry volume when wet, and over 75% of Oklahoma bedrock units are possible sources of expansive soil (Oklahoma Geological Survey, Geologic Hazards in Oklahoma).
- OSU research puts the seasonal "active zone" of soil movement in Oklahoma at roughly 0.5 to 4 meters deep (Oklahoma State University study of active zone depth).
- Oklahoma City requires permits to construct, alter or repair structures (City of OKC Building & Trade Permits).
- Homeowners policies generally exclude earth movement and settling, so read your policy before planning around a claim (Home Repair Index, Oklahoma City (2026)).
