This paper has the objective of demonstrating and analyzing the best alternative in relation to the costbenefit of foundation in a residential building containing 11 stories. Some types of foundations were analyzed in order to obtain the best of the options previously chosen. Based on the construction in question and some factors (cost and productivity), an analysis was made to choose the most indicated types of foundation, and later the cost-benefit comparison was made. The chosen options were superficial foundation with footings (solution adopted in the work), and deep foundation through continuous flight auger piles or steel piles. The Revit program was used in the BIM platform to model all the alternatives, in order to assist in the visualization of the project, as well as in the respective quantitative ones. With study of the types of foundations, it was possible to verify which one would be the most suitable for the construction.
