Raft foundations are essentially large plan area foundations built either solidly or in cellular form. They may be employed for lightly loaded structures on soft natural ground or on other ground where weak zones exist. In this case the raft is designed to span across such zones with tolerable bearing pressures and acceptable settlements.Raft foundations can be more costly due to extensive excavation and concrete expenses. Raft foundations are good for places with bad soil and work well on soft clay or loose sand. Other shallow foundation types normally don't work here. They spread the weight of a building evenly over a big area and prevent the building from sinking or moving.
