Slope stability analysis of earth dam is very important to ascertain the stability of the structure. The stability of earth dam depends on its geometry, its components, materials, water pressure and the forces to which it is subjected. This paper presents stability analysis carried out on 95 m high “Souk Tleta earth Dam” with a crest length of about 200 m situated on the river Bougdoura in north Algeria. The slope stability analysis of Souk Tleta earth dam has been done by Plaxis software and is used under different conditions of ground water levels to evaluate slope stability. The factor of safety is calculated for each water level.
