(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.
Faults of different types are charcteristic of the stress field in which they formed. Faults are nothing more than failure of the crust in shear. The crust is generally in a triaxial state of stress with three principal stress directions, one vertical and two horizontal (like a set of cartesian axes). 1  In normal faulting, the largest (most compressive) stress is vertical.
