Do you know how deep and active the clay is? Our house is on a slab and it moves as the clay under it expands and contracts as the soil moisture level changes.

Not wishing to be a doomsayer, but you might find your pier moves too.

You might want to check before you pour if you need a bigger foundation or tie it to a floor slab to help the pier remain vertical.
