The shear wave velocity of soils is widely used in the field of geotechnical earthquake engineering. We select the data of shear wave velocity of soils from 82 typical boreholes in urban area of Hengshui city for regressive statistic analyses with three mathematical models. The correlation coefficient R2 was used to verify the linear correlation between the shear wave velocity and depth. The regressive statistic analyses show that the shear wave velocity and depth of soils in the district is remarkably correlated linearly. According to two cases with and without considering soil classification，the fittest function between the shear wave velocity and depth of soils in urban area of Hengshui city are obtained. The estimation of the shear wave velocity of soils from a testing borehole has shown that the empirical relation between the shear wave velocity and depth of soils in the district is reliable. We draw a conclution that the empirical relations between the shear wave velocity and depth of soils of Hengshui city in this paper are reliable, which can be used to predict the shear wave velocity of urban area of Hengshui city in the range of 100m depth.
