A diagnosing method and apparatus non-destructively performing damage evaluation of a piled up structure of conductive materials by using acoustic waves. The diagnosing method according to the present invention includes the steps of placing an electro-magnetic acoustic transducer 20 out of contact with a piled up structure 34 of conductive materials 32 and 34 piled up with a non-conductive interface 33 (35) interposed therebetween, transmitting ultrasonic waves from one side 31 of the piled up structure by the electro-magnetic acoustic transducer 20, receiving ultrasonic waves reflected from the other side of the piled up structure, and diagnosing a damaged condition of the piled up structure on the basis of the ultrasonic velocity and attenuation of the received ultrasonic waves.
