    Yes, your understanding is right. The Mat foundation is on clay. The Client is not okay with Pile foundation, Geo technical engineer has given me a soil subgrade modulus of 500, which comes to the bearing capacity of 40kPa. What solution I can provide in this situation. The model is also showing...
