Question

the foundation below the beams of a building is much wider than the walls what could be the reason for this​

Answer 1

Explanation:

we know that pressure is inversely proportional to area

(P=f/a)

if the foundations of the building cover less area then the pressure acting on them will be more which the foundations can't withstand and the building will collapse.

thus the foundations of the buildings are wider than the walls of the building
