Data is presented verifying the inertness of pore water pressures in stiff clays to stress changes as Skempton's pore pressure coefficient B drops below about 0.2. In such cases, a total stress analysis based on a direct measurement of strength through undrained tests, more easily applicable on a larger area, is shown to give more reasonable values of factor of safety for the short term stability of slopes in fissured and/or stony clays than effective stress analyses based on small specimens.
