with respect to slab-on-ground foundations the term “backfill” is usually used to refer to the soil that is removed from the foundation pad to form the trenches for the stiffening beams; much of this material typically winds up laying against the forms; in an expansive soil area the backfill material is normally clay; clay soil is usually very lumpy and hard to compact; if the backfill is not compacted, it can allow water to percolate to the bottom of the perimeter stiffening beam where it can result in unnecessary foundation movement
