Text and Images from Slide

Images to show the effect of strain, the formation of basin and range areas, and areas formed by shear stress.

11.5 How do geologic structures relate to stress, strain, and strength?

Deformation by tension results in a lengthening of the landscape such as in the Basin and Range.

Horsts - blocks of crust jostled upwards along normal faults

Grabens - blocks of crust jostled downward along normal faults

We find common shear features along the California coast and compression in the eastern regions.
