V-rule model

The V-rule is one of the most important ways of determining quickly the dip of planar features, i.e. the map pattern of a planar surface (e.g. fault or bedding) 'V's in the direction that it dips. This paper model shows a valley that is perpendicular to the strike of a faulted sequence and a fault. The faults and beds 'V' and dip in opposite directions.
