(From Tempur-Pedic's Website) Tempur-Pedic mattresses have been designed to be paired with a Tempur-Pedic foundation. However, we understand that some consumers wish to use their existing platform style bed with slats (as opposed to a flat surface) with our mattress.
Types of Thrust Faults â¢ Fault bend folds-fault forms before the fold; deformation restricted to the hanging wallâ¢ Fault propagation folds-fault forms along with the folding; deformation in both the hanging wall and foot wall. Example of a fault-bend fold thrust fault at the WVU Geology Field Camp.
The main characteristic of a reverse fault it that a piece of rock from the plate is thrust up higher than the original level of the ground. This formation is also referred to as a scarp. In contrast, there are two other types of stress, both forming different types of faults. Divergent plate boundaries, which is when the land plates are moving away from each other, experience tensional stress. This type of stress produces normal faults. The rocks and landforms are stretched when tensional stress occurs. Since rocks cannot stretch indefinitely, they eventually break and form a fault.
