English abstract:
The design of dams with full or partial overtoppable crests already has a long history. Since recently their number is increasing constantly, but there are still open questions concerning their design. Design formulas in the literature give different results. One of the reasons could be the underlying model test assumptions. Model test on two different sets were performed and their results compared to recommendations from literature.
