Hanging Wall Up Footwall Down

Directly above earth s.

Hanging wall up footwall down.

The footwall moves down relative to the hanging wall. The crust experiences extension. In a normal fault the hanging wall moves downward relative to the footwall. Hanging wall up footwall down.

Type of regional stress. Boundaries of metamorphic core complexes. Edges of horsts and grabens. Combination of dip and strike slip focus and epicenter focus.

Movement is left and right horizontal example. Note that a vertical fault with one block moving up is neither a reverse or normal fault as there is no hanging wall or footwall. Zones of crustal extension. It is caused by compression.

Low angle normal fault footwall gneiss hanging wall shallow crust rocks. Hanging wall down footwall up. Low angle normal faults with regional tectonic significance may be designated detachment faults. As rehemat explained in the reverse fault the hanging wall will move up with respect to the footwall and in a normal fault the hanging wall will move down with respect to the footwall.

Hanging wall down footwall up. Footwall left side is at the bottom 2. Then there is also a reverse fault which happens at a convergent boundary. In this fault the hanging wall moves down relative to the footwall.

Hanging wall right side is at the bottom reverse. The motion of the crustal blocks is referred to as strike slip. In a reverse fault the hanging wall moves up and the footwall moves down. But that is when the foot wall moves down the hanging wall moves up.

An upthrown block between two normal faults dipping away from each other is a horst. Then there is also a. Zones of crustal extension. Movement is up and down vertical normal.

In a strike slip fault they slide past each other the foot wall and hanging wall are not there because it has. Where the displacement of the plates takes place aka hypocenter epicenter. Basin and range region. The hanging wall moves down relative to the footwall.

The hanging wall moves up relative to the footwall.
