A method for determining an amount of correction of a bearing height includes the steps of: determining the heights of bearings in an engine by using a transfer matrix method based on an actually measured bearing load and an actually measured crank deflection; determining a computed bearing load acting on each of the bearings based on the determined bearing height; determining a reference bearing load acting on each bearing when the bearing height of each bearing is positioned on a reference plane; determining a load difference between the computed bearing load and the reference bearing load on each bearing; and comparing the determined load difference with a set range and, when the determined load difference exceeds the set range, determining a correction range of the bearing height such that the load difference falls within an allowable range.
