  <dc:description xml:lang="eng">Abstract: In present paper we focus on the procedure for assessment of existing levee composition, state and stability, based on the results of field and laboratory investigation, and following the positive international recommendations in this field. For this purpose, we classify main types of levees in Serbia, including the main categories of levee failure. As a results of research, we propose statistically reliable correlations among the grain size composition, results of penetration tests and specific electrical resistivity, in order to estimate the composition and state of the existing levee. Regarding the stability, we develop separate stability diagrams for assessment of construction and filtration stability, for levees with different composition and geometry, assuming common range of values of input geomechanical parameters.</dc:description>
