What is Mat Foundation Design in Geotechnical Engineering about?

A mat foundation is a large continuous footing that spans the entire footprint of a structure. Mat foundations are used when: 1) structural loads are too high for conventional spread footings, 2) soil conditions are poor and prone to differential settlement, or 3) loads are unevenly distributed and could cause differential movement. The document provides an example problem to calculate soil pressures at different points of a mat foundation plan. It also references additional sources on mat foundation design
