Garages in Corinth
Corinth's population went from 1,264 in 1980 to 3,944 in 1990 to 11,325 by 2000, growth its own historical account ties to the economic development that grew up along Interstate 35 south of Denton starting in the 1970s. Most of that growth landed in the 1990s, so most of the city's housing stock, and the garage slabs poured with it, dates to a single decade-long building boom rather than a mix of older and newer construction.
Slabs and Weather in Corinth
AMPP's rundown of why concrete cracks lists loss of subbase support, where the ground under a slab washes out or settles over time, as a problem it says shows up mainly in older slabs. Three decades after Corinth's 1990s building boom, that is a more likely culprit behind a cracked garage floor here than anything tied to how recently the concrete was poured.
