Abstract
Our main motive under this topic is to investigate behaviour of tapered piles under various soil conditions and
examine their feasibility. We have added another feature into the tapered piles, and that is of corrugated surfaces. The
corrugation can be either semi-circular or square in shape. The advantages of using corrugated surface is that the
cylindrical surface area of piles is increased which further leads to an increase in skin friction, thus the load carrying
capacity of the piles.
