This paper focuses on the power and concerns of surface wave method in geotechnical applications. It is increasingly used to map not only the vertical variation but also the lateral variation of S-wave velocity. The methods available for surface wave testing and analysis are reviewed and re-examined. Case histories are presented to highlight unique features of surface wave method and point out potential problems. The solution to those problems is proposed and further standardization of surface wave testing is suggested.
