A–5–3. 5.3—Asymmetric overturned

Folds can be symmetrical or asymmetrical The former is when the fold limbs have an equal but opposite angle of dip Asymmetrical folds are those where one limb dips at a different amount than the other Many folds are overturned; both limbs dip in the same direction Lastly intensely folded rocks might even be tilted right back to horizontal

On the next page is a geologic map of an overturned fold Plot the data (note that it is most useful to plot the poles to the planar data you are given) Remember to convert your strikes to the right-hand-rule where necessary Plot the bearing and plunge of the fold axis

Parallel fold: a fold in which the thickness measured orthogonally across the layer boundaries is constant throughout the fold Concentricfold: asubclassofparallelfoldwhoseinnerandoutersurfacesarede?nedbycirculararcshaving acommoncenter Similar fold: a fold characterized by (1) parallel dip isogons; (2) a decrease in orthogonal thickness from

Overturned folds would have dips that trend in the same direction (Figure 7) Another thing to note is that the strike for both limbs in all of these examples are parallel This is characteristic of all folds that have a horizontal disposition (such as the example in Figure 6)
