A numerical method has been introduced to analyze ground vibrations due to impact pile driving operations. The proposed method consists of non-linear pile driving analysis of a hammerpile-soil system and linear analysis of three dimensionally propagating waves in multi-layered media. The field test was analyzed to verify the proposed method, as well as to investigate the influence of the reduction of soil resistance. Furthermore, the analysis was performed to study the features of ground vibrations generated by piles driven into the major types of soil deposits in Japanese urban areas.
