Understanding Raft Foundations: A Comprehensive Guide
A raft foundation is a thick, reinforced concrete slab that covers the entire base area of a structure, akin to a solid floor. This type of foundation is particularly useful in scenarios where the area covered may exceed the actual contact area, which often depends on the soil’s bearing capacity.
The reinforcing bars within the slab are strategically placed, running perpendicular to each other in both top and bottom layers, providing excellent structural support.
Design and Construction Process
At Complete Group, we prioritize effective and efficient solutions for your raft foundation needs. The construction process begins with a meticulous site assessment carried out by our experts.
They evaluate soil conditions, load requirements, and other critical factors that influence the foundation’s performance. Based on this assessment, our engineering team will develop a tailored design, optimizing the raft foundation for your project’s unique requirements.
Quality Assurance and Handover
Our construction team executes the process with an unwavering commitment to quality, ensuring strict adherence to industry standards throughout. We perform comprehensive quality checks at every phase of construction, guaranteeing durability and compliance.
