Foundations are the initial components of construction of any civil engineering structure. They are therefore incredibly important from the point of view of safety and durability of structures. Hence, if not selected and constructed judiciously, they may eventually adversely affect the strength and resilience of the building, once completed. The foundation of a structure is a somewhat invisible and sometimes ignored component of the building. It is increasingly evident however that attention to good foundation design and construction has significant benefits to the builder and can avoid some serious future problems. Selection of an appropriate foundation depends upon the type of the proposed super-structure, type of the sub-soil encountered at the site, groundwater conditions, financial and other constrains like allotted time etc. The fact that the type of sub-soil encountered at the site significantly affects the performance of the foundation is quite evident from this study. It has been observed that for the clay type sub-soil (as encountered in the present study); load carrying capacity of piles is significantly enhanced with under-reamed c/s as compared to those with uniform c/s, with other dimensions remaining the same. Also, it was observed that with the increase in the stem diameter of the pile, the enhancement in load carrying capacity of under-reamed piles as compared to piles with uniform c/s also gets appreciated. Thus, in principle; it can be stated that under-reamed piles are the most optimal foundation type for cohesive type of sub-soil.
