Abstract
Since the circumstances on the Ijsselmeer will change by the reclamation works, observations on the present lake cannot directly be used for the determination of the cross-sections of the dikes protecting the reclaimed land. The method of obtaining the necessary data (water level, wave attack) is discussed, as well as the determination of the design level. A reasoned description is given of a typical cross-section of a polderdike.
