A raft column footing, also known as a mat foundation, is a continuous slab that supports multiple columns, spreading the loads over a large area. It's used when soil bearing capacity is low, and individual footings would be too close, making a combined foundation impractical. Raft Building Foundations are constructed with typical slab depths between 4”-12” (10-30 cm). Column widths are commonly 8”-12” (20-30 cm) with column spacings from 9’10”-24’6” (3-7.5 m).
