The paper refers to the monitoring of vertical displacements of rockfill (riprap) dams, displacements caused by theprocess of material compaction of dams. In order to monitor the vertical displacement, on the weir crest and bermssituated on the downstream-side were placed tracking markers. To determine the vertical displacements was used aDNA 03 level and DNA levelling invar staff. Measurements processing was done rigorously through the method ofconditional measurements and indirect measurements. The case study was conducted on the Belis Fantanele dam usingthe measurement periods of May to October 2013, respectively from March to November 2014. The maximum recordedvalue of compaction is 312 mm on the RN10 landmark located on the dam weir crest.
