XSsign > XSzv => Flow slide would not lead to damage on levee => Global check passes.

Detailed check: ( see table below for intermediary results) Probability of flood damage by liquefaction  (= 0.00) < Allowable probability of failure (2.50 × 10-6) => Detailed check passes.D-Flow Slide results

Overall check: as Global and Detailed check pass, the The Overall check gives a Warning message because D50 < 200 μm , an Advanced check is therefore needed. 

...

Global check - Step 1c: The foreland is artificial => Global and Detailed check fail, an Advanced check is needed.

Detailed check: ( see table below for intermediary results) Probability of flood damage by liquefaction  < Allowable probability of failure  => Detailed check passes.D-Flow Slide results

Overall check: as step 1c of Global check fails, the Overall check fails whatever the Detailed check result. The Overall check gives a Information message as the Global check fails.

Case C:

Global check - Step 1a:

...

Global check - Step 1d: The average slope over a height of at least 5 m is 1:3.901 so steeper than 1:4 => Flow slide is possible based on criterium "steepest slope over 5 m" => Global check fails.

Detailed check: ( see table below for intermediary results) Probability of flood damage by liquefaction  > Allowable probability of failure  => Detailed check fails.D-Flow Slide results

Overall check: the Overall result gives a warning Warning because the criteria on "steepest slope over 5 m" is met, an Advanced check is therefore needed.
