The foundation types considered are; isolated footings, raft and pile foundations under different allowable bearing pressure values of the supporting soils. The study provides the requirement of structural quantities and foundation costs per unit floor area of the building in different seismic zones. The result of the study are useful for the design professionals and cost engineers during early stages of design development and cost planning. The study also highlights the achievable economy in foundation costs through proper evaluation of allowable bearing pressure of soils through adequate geotechnical investigations of the building sites.
