This study aims to exclude the possibility of pile driver capsizing due to exceeding slope of the construction site surface. The paper determinates the reasons for the violation of the requirements of urban planning legislation and regulatory and technical documentation, which results in a pile driver capsizing. The authors calculated the center of gravity of the pile driver and its lateral stability during the preparation of piles for driving and the driving itself. The significance of the results for the construction industry lies in the need to increase the level of safety when performing pile work and taking into account the actual conditions of the site in the places of their implementation. At the investigated construction site, the slope of the construction site did not exceed a guaranteed safe value 3°.
