Abstract (2. Language): 
The piled raft has proved to be an economical foundation type compared to conventional pile foundations. The application of piled rafts on soft clay has increased recently. In this research the finite element model for the soil profile was generated. The numerical analysis was based on the Mohr-Coulomb model incorporated in the finite element code; PLAXIS. In this regard, effect of the distance between the micro-piles and length variations of micro-piles has been shown. And the results showed that with increasing distance between micro-piles and length of micro-piles, significant impact on the settlement will occur.
