What kind of foundations used in block cotton soils..

Answer / linganna

for any structure foundation type =f(soil type,importance of structure,size of the structure, load to be transformed to soil)
1. cohesive soils have low bearing capacity so we prefer pile foundation (have high surface area so skin friction resistance more)
