A mass strip foundation is a type of shallow foundation that consists of a continuous strip of concrete, designed to support linear loads from walls or structural elements. It distributes the weight of the building over a larger area to prevent sinking or settling. This foundation is typically used for load-bearing walls in low-rise structures and is suitable for soils with good bearing capacity. Its construction is straightforward and cost-effective for many types of buildings.
