The earth anchor is placed in stable soil, because the fill soil next to the foundation was disturbed when the house was built. The fill soil was originally dug out to build the home and back-filled after construction, so it is unstable. Fill soil is subject to shrinkage and hydrostatic pressure, which causes foundation problems in the first place.
