This video will introduce to you types of footings or type
of foundations in construction.
Here are some common types of footings used in construction:

1. Strip Footing: Long, narrow footings for load-bearing walls or closely spaced columns.

2. Spread Footing: Individual footings supporting isolated columns or individual loads.

3. Combined Footing: Supports multiple columns when their individual footings would overlap.

4. Mat or Raft Footing: Large, thick slabs covering the entire building area to distribute loads.

5. Pile Footing: Deep, slender elements driven into weak or compressible soil for load transfer.

6. Strap Footing: Connects multiple isolated footings with a beam to distribute loads.

These footings are selected based on factors such as structural design, soil conditions, and load requirements.
