Residential concrete foundation 8'' x 8' tall pour. Has more than enough steel in it - both horizontally and vertically. Poured about a year ago.

In the last 2-3 months it has developed many hairline cracks all over the place. Seem to be getting more numerous - but not wider.

No signs of settlement anywhere. Exterior brick, drywall, doors etc. are all fine.

Any ideas??
