The slope stability of four dikes that withstand a loading of a high water level is analysed. These analyses are part of the research towards a new method for slope stability analysis for the safety assessment of primary dikes in The Netherlands. This new method includes the characterisation of the behaviour of clay and peat with undrained shear strength parameters.
