Option 2 : Spread loads to all piles
Explanation:
The functions of a pile cap are:
1. To distribute horizontal and vertical loads equally over the pile group and thus over a greater area of bearing potential.
2. To laterally stabilize individual piles thus increasing the overall stability of the group.
3. To provide the necessary combined resistance to stresses set up by the superstructure and/or ground movement.
