Problem 5.1

Construct a \( \beta \) and/or \( \pi \) diagram for the mapped featues.

Plot all measured surfaces (plane) on a stereonet. These diagrams are basically the same, plotting the planes is a bit easier and includes a couple less steps. Plotting the poles requires extra steps, but is better when you have lots of measurements.

The intersection is the fold axis. It should have a trend and plunge

Use the fold axis to project the map onto the fold profile plane

You will project in the direction of the trend and project (or shorten) by \( \sin \) plunge

Problem 5.2 and Problem 5.3

Plot the limbs of the fold (also plot the poles to the planes) Red and Blue Lines

Determine the fold axis by the intersection of the limbs. What is the trend and the plunge

Plot the poles to the planes for each limb, Red and Blue points

The interlimb angle is \( 180 - \theta \) where \( \theta \) is the angle between the poles to the limbs / planes. Measure this angle along the great circle

The Axial plane goes through the fold axis and the the point halfway between the poles to the planes / limb
