What is softsoil? what kind of foundation?

Answer Posted / danish

if you are going to built structure on soft soil then you should check at which point there is a hard strata, if you found it at nearer depth, it will be good otherwise you should adopt raft foundation or pile foundation. in most cases pile foundations are used. one thing is important in that case that you should have to maintain the air gap below the ground beam otherwise it can be damaged by uplift pressure of soil as the black soil having the tendency of uplifting during rainfall.
