3. Faulting in the Yucca Mountain Area

- FAULTING IN THE YUCCA MOUNTAIN AREA .
- INTRODUCTION--Why study faulting at Yucca Mountain? .
- Geophysical investigations of faulting are part of an effort to help geologically characterize a potential nuclear waste repository at Yucca Mountain. ...
- Geophsical data reveal that Midway Valley is charcterized by several known and previously unknown faults, that the existence of the Yucca Wash fault is equivocal, and that the central part of the eastern flank of Yucca Mountain is characterized by numerous small-scale faulting. Gravity and magnetic data also reveal several large-amplitude anomalies that reflect larger-scale faulting along the margins of the central block. ...
4. WSSPC Policy Recommendation 02-4
- www.wsspc.org
- The main risk to structures from surface faulting is displacement in foundations where they straddle the fault, possibly causing life-threatening damage or collapse. ... Although losses from surface faulting in historical earthquakes have been relatively low compared to losses from other earthquake hazards, many faults traverse heavily urbanized areas in the Basin and Range province and have the potential for causing significant losses from surface faulting. The most common measures to reduce risks to structures from surface faulting are identification of “active” faults and avoidance using setbacks.
- In the Basin and Range province, surface faulting commonly accompanies earthquakes of magnitude 6. ... Studies of historical ruptures have shown that surface faulting typically recurs along the same traces (Bonilla, 1970; Crone and Machette, 1984; Schwartz and Crone, 1985; McCalpin, 1987; Yeats and others, 1997) such that ruptures similar to those in past earthquakes can be expected in future earthquakes.
- Geologists have identified faults throughout the Basin and Range province that present a surface-faulting hazard. Surface fault-rupture zones may be hundreds of meters wide, and typically include a main trace with more than 1 m of displacement/event and an associated zone of tilting, ground cracking, and minor faulting, chiefly on the down-dropped side of the main trace. ...
- Because many WSSPC states share the need to deal with surface faulting in land-use planning to reduce losses from earthquakes, WSSPC believes it is important to ensure that a consistent approach is used, at least within a particular state. Only California has a state law addressing surface-faulting hazards in land-use regulation and providing guidelines for setbacks. Other WSSPC states address surface-faulting hazards at the local government level, if at all. To deal with surface-faulting hazards, local governments must: 1) determine which faults require setbacks; that is, define “active” faults (see PR 02-3); and 2) define a required minimum setback, or provide a technical and/or administrative procedure for determining setbacks based on site-specific fault-zone characteristics and type of facility.

5. SHALLOW HOLOCENE FAULTING IN THE TACOMA FAULT ZONE, WESTERN WASHINGTON, FROM HIGH-RESOLUTION SEISMIC DATA

- SHALLOW HOLOCENE FAULTING IN THE TACOMA FAULT ZONE, WESTERN WASHINGTON, FROM HIGH-RESOLUTION SEISMIC DATA.
- In Carr Inlet, the easternmost waterway, profiles imaged Holocene faulting having 3-4 m of vertical displacement. ... Evidence for faulting was less clear in Case Inlet, but the abrupt termination of a gas-saturated mud layer and a south-dipping segment of the erosional surface at the top of the glacial deposits align with the trends of scarps imaged by the LIDAR data several km to the west. A 300-m-wide, northeast trending ridge composed of glacial deposits could also be related to faulting, or it could be a glacial feature such as an esker having a trend transverse to the ice flow pattern. ... Fault displacement may be distributed across this zone of shallow faulting, or the shallow faults may be related to folding and are not rooted in deeper faults. ...

6. Oblique Normal Faulting/AGU
- www.rci.rutgers.edu
- Abstract--We have used scaled clay models to study the secondary faulting in the sedimentary cover above an oblique-slip normal fault. ...
- Two populations of secondary faults are associated with oblique-slip normal faulting. ...
- These map views, however, differ considerably from those formed in models of dip-slip normal faulting, which show a single secondary fault trend. ... Thus, it is necessary to use both map and cross-section data to distinguish among the fault patterns produced by strike-slip, oblique-slip, and dip-slip faulting. ...
