Mat FoundationA continuous, thick, concrete slab foundation heavily reinforced with steel supporting an entire structure.It is a type of shallow foundation (depth ≤ width).All the columns are connected to an large RCC slab and the slab is directly contact with the soil.All vertical structural loadings from columns and walls are supported on the common foundation.Generally used in heavy industrial plant, official and commercial buildings and sometimes in residential buildings.

When Mat foundation should be providedIf foundation area covers 50-60% of the total plot area.
If the individual columns or footings would be undesirably close together or try to overlap.
It is required where soils have low bearing capacity and have to support heavy structural loads.
Structures on marshy land, soft clay and land that are made up of sanitary land fill or other materials (like debris, unconsolidated soil and solid waste etc.) where differential settlement is suspected.

Shoring
Creates a continuous wall along the boundary.Supports the load of the surrounding structures during construction.Prevents the surrounding soil from breaking during construction.Prevents the collapsing of the existing structure.Protects the existing structure from vibration.Remains in the ground and serves as a retaining structure.Can be of three types: Concrete pile shore, Steel sheet shore, Log shore.

A temporary wall is provided very next to the shoring so that deposited water can’t enter into the construction site.A cement mortar layer is provided over shoring to prevent moisture.

Earthwork ExcavationPartial & Full Excavation
is required before further construction.
Soil CompactionAfter full excavation, soil
compaction is needed to obtain a uniform surface for the placement of BFS and other layers.
![Page 18: Mat or Raft Foundation, AUST O29+30 Sec-C](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081507/58eceed61a28ab890a8b4645/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Bracing & Strutting
A horizontal support system for the boundary shores during excavation and foundation.
Its requirement depends on the depth of foundation.
Generally made of steel sheet.
Also known as horizontal shores.
![Page 19: Mat or Raft Foundation, AUST O29+30 Sec-C](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081507/58eceed61a28ab890a8b4645/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Braces are the orthogonal members in the system.Strut is the inclined member joining two perpendicular braces.King posts are the vertical compression members supporting the brace & strut system.

Leveling
After casting & compaction, leveling is a must to get the same thickness all over the
mat slab.
Leveling with Patta

Retaining Wall & Shear Wall
Reinforcement Placing Shuttering CastingRetaining wall is provided in basement to prevent lateral load of the surrounding soil.Shear wall is a wall that is designed to resist shear & the lateral force (wind, earthquake).

AdvantagesThe foundation and floor slab is combined, which saves time and materials.Loads are spread over the whole area of the structure.It can cope with mixed or poor ground condition.It requires little excavation.It reduces differential settlement.
DisadvantagesLarge thickness, expensive.Shore protection is needed.Susceptible to edge erosion.Weak when supporting point loads, specific treatment required.

Conclusion
This presentation is based on the observations on Mat foundation in various sites & meeting with concerned engineers & workers.
The purpose of this presentation was to gather some practical experience on Mat foundation.
During the making of this presentation, we also practically experienced other major & minor parts of a construction.
