The single pile is a structural element that has an important role in supporting any part of the superstructure. This paper adopted three dimensional finite element modelling by using ANSYS to discover the influence of soil size domain on pile diameter, pile length, load eccentricity and torsion magnitude. One type of soil was used and described by Drucker-Prager model. The numerical analysis has been performed to show how the variation in soil size domain effects on the behaviour of single pile under torsion load. The procedure which is adopted in the investigation depends on fixing all variables and changing one variable to show the impact of this variable on the pile response considering soil domain variation. From the investigation, it is obvious that the pile diameter, eccentricity and torsion load have a major influence on the pile response, while the pile length has a minor influence on the pile response. Here, the increase in pile diameter reduces the load transfer to the soil; also the increase in eccentricity increases the load transfer to the soil while the increase in soil domain reduces the pile response. When the torsion load increases the pile response increases too. The pile response refers to displacement, rotation, shear force and bending moment.
