What is the difference between Wraft and file foundation and where these are used ?

Answer Posted / surajitg

If load of the structure is not huge enough and need not a deep foundation but the quality of soil also not very good in a shallow depth then we go for raft foundation. Where the load is quite high and need a good bearing capacity then we go for pile foundation.
