A pile cap stands for a compact concrete material that is supported with concrete or timber piles driven into soft or unsettled ground to build up a perfect durable foundation. It generally develops part of the foundation of a building, specifically a multi-story building, structure or support base for heavy equipment. The load of the building is transmitted by the cast concrete pile cap into the piles. Raft is the same structure to a pile cap and it is a concrete foundation floor supported with soft soil that is accountable for subsidence.
