—In the recent years, there has been significant increase in high rise buildings due to lack of space andrequirement of amenities at a particular place. This has necessitated the use of raft foundation. The use of raft foundationtends to reduce the chances of differential settlement and allow increased pressure at foundation level to be transmittedwith the concept of Buoyancy Raft.In conventional analysis & design of raft foundation through has been found that theeffect of soil which supports the structure is generally neglected. Actually behavior of structure depends on soil strata.The design of raft foundation is a soil structure interaction problem. SSI effect depends on many factors likeSuperstructure stiffness, Loadings, Footing stiffness, Raft Rigidity. The S.S.I has less influence on low rise buildings.
