The movement of two lithospheric plates towards each others results in collision and creation of a force of compression .This leads to the wrinkling of the rocks layers of the earths crust which is reffered to as folding.
When plates move, stresses and strains occur in the lithospheric giving rise to fissures and fractures.This causes large-scale displacement of the rock structures,which is know as faulting
