Definitions:

Strike-Slip Fault

A type of fault where two blocks of Earth's crust slide past each other horizontally, often causing earthquakes.

Oblique-Slip Faults

Faults that combine features of both strike-slip and dip-slip faults, moving both horizontally and vertically.

Normal Fault

A type of fault where the hanging wall moves downward relative to the footwall due to tensional forces.

Reverse Fault

A type of fault where the hanging wall moves up relative to the footwall due to compressional forces.
