1. What is Footing?
Footing is a structural member that safely transmits the load of upper structure to the ground, the basic method of footing design is to distribute the structural load so that the size per area of the load transmitted from the upper part of the structure is less than the soil strength that the ground can support, that is, the bearing capacity.

2. What is Foundation?
It is a complex term used in Geotechnical Engineering to denote the soil and footing and their interaction that provides bearing capacity as well as settlement resistance to the super structure.

I. Shallow foundation – These are used for small and light buildings. They are commonly referred to as spread footings or open footings. There are four types of shallow foundation:
