In a fault the fault plane is less than 35 from horizontal and the hanging wall block moves upward relative to the footwall block.
Hanging wall moves upward shallow.
Boundaries of metamorphic core complexes.
During an earthquake if a footwall slides upward relative to a hanging wall as shown in the figure below the fault is termed a fault.
Hanging wall and footwall.
Footwall lies to the left of the hanging wall 55.
They are common at convergent boundaries.
Edges of horsts and grabens.
This type of fault is referred to as what.
In a fault the fault plane is greater than 35 from horizontal and the hanging wall block moves upward relative to the footwall block.
This terminology comes from mining.
Hanging wall up footwall down.
Thrust faults with a very low angle of dip and a very large total displacement are called overthrusts or detachments.
Hanging wall lies to the left of the footwall d.
If during an earthquake a hanging wall slides upward relative to a footwall the fault is termed if the fault is shallow much closer to horizontal than vetical.
The fault plane is greater than 35 from horizontal and the hanging wall block moves upward relative to the footwall block shear stress at sufficient depth within a fault plane can induce ductile shear forming a fine grained metamorphic rock named.
When working a tabular ore body the miner stood with the footwall under his feet and with the hanging wall above him.
Thrust faults are reverse faults that dip less than 45.
Reverse faults form when the hanging wall moves up.
The two sides of a non vertical fault are known as the hanging wall and footwall.
Together normal and reverse faults are called dip slip faults because the movement on them occurs along the dip direction either down or up respectively.
The forces creating reverse faults are compressional pushing the sides together.
Basin and range region.
Footwall lies vertically above the hanging wall c.
The hanging wall occurs above the fault plane and the footwall occurs below it.
Hanging wall lies vertically above the footwall b.
Reverse shear stress at sufficient depth within a fault plane can induce ductile shear forming a fine grained metamorphic rock named.
With compressional forces the hanging wall moves upward relative to the footwall.
Hanging wall down footwall up.
Zones of crustal extension.
