Large faults within the Earth's crust result from the action of plate tectonic forces. Fracture: interrupt, break, or destroy Crust: the outer layer of the Earth Tectonic: relation to the structure or movement of the earth's crust 2015/9/16 Haibei XIONG College of Civil Engineering, Tongji University 11 Fault Fig.1.3 Sketch of the earth’s crust 2015/9/16 熊海贝 同济大学 xionghaibei@tongji.edu.cn 12 • Field observations show that abrupt changes in the structure of rocks are common. • Such offsets of geological structure are called faults. • Faults are causes rather than results of earthquakes
