The bending of the strata near the fault may be so great that the direction of the shift is no longer even nearly parallel with the fault surface; it is better, then, to use the three following components of the shift: The strike-shift denotes the horizontal component of the shift parallel with the fault strike, as already defined. The normal shift denotes the horizontal component of the shift at right angles to the...
