Strike-Slip

A fault in which surfaces on opposing sides of the fault plane have flown horizontally and equal to the exposure of the misconduct.  

California's dormant beast, the San Andreas Fault, denotes the tricky yet sticky limit between two of Earth's tectonic plates.

It is in charge of the most significant seismic tremors in California, up to in any event extent 8.1.

Seen from space, the San Andreas Fault resembles a long, slender valley that marks where the North America plate meets the Pacific plate.

This fast break between the two plates is known as blame.

In any case, saw very close, there are numerous cracks and blames that check the place where the two planes slide through one another.

Some of the time the limit is a zone of a few little deficiencies, at least one of which may break amid a seismic tremor.

Now and again it is only to blame.""
