Normal faults occur from compressive stress and the reverse faults occur from tensional stress.
A normal fault or a stress is a shortening reaction brought by opposing movements whereas a reverse fault has a compression pressure within the area.
The faults produced with this action are known as transform faults if it occurs in the ocean, and strike-slip faults if the same occurs on land.
