1. Simple and regular shapes are preferred.
Complex shapes like H, U. T, L, etc. should be
avoided.
2. Compact plans help in energy gain and are
useful for colder regions while fractured plans
help energy loss which is useful for hotter
regions.
Earth consolidates and hence settle during time,
therefore height of platform should allow for
future settlement of soil.
Raise platform in thickness by compacting the
earth
