Reverse Fault. 1  In strike-slip faulting, the intermediate stress is vertical. 2  The largest and smallest stresses are horizontal. 3  The shear fracture (fault) makes an angle of less than 45 degrees with the major (most compressive) principal stress direction, in this case again the horizontal.
Reverse faults are dip-slip faults in which the hanging wall moves up relative to the footwall. Reverse faults are the result of compression (forces that push rocks together). The Sierra Madre fault zone of southern California is an example of reverse-fault movement. There the rocks of the San Gabriel Mountains are being pushed up and over the rocks of the San Fernando and San Gabriel valleys.
