Piled raft is an economical foundation system where the bearing capacity of the raft is taken into consideration in supporting the loads from superstructure. The friction piles in a piled raft system are strategically located to enhance the bearing capacity and also to control settlement. The design approach is generally divided into two types, i.e, low-rise buildings (less than 3-storeys high) and medium-rise buildings (3 to 5-storeys tall)

ADSTRACT
Piled raft on soft ground ism economical foundation system where the bearing capacity of the eft
taken ito consideration i stpporting the toads from superstructure. The ction ples i a piled it
‘Sjste ae located strategically to ence the bearing capacity of the alt and ao ve contro setement,
‘aptly differential setlenent and hence, these piles are commonly known as “stlementreding
piles Therefor, pled raft ia techazally competent foundation sytem and offers signin svings in

‘Sonventiona piled foundticn usally ignores the coatibuton of the raft and esumes the lads are
“supported ently bythe pls, However, th use of piled rat foundation system requires careful design
and analysis sit involves complex pilesoilstuctr interaction, In his pape, desi ses on piled nt
foundation system will be dctssed with paul reference to buildings on soft ground. However, the
approach presented inthis sper is abo applicable to more competent ground conditions. The design

Inedivmerse buildings (10 Sstreys high). The piled raft foundation system has boon sucessfully
