Question 24 Given A Fault That Daylights To A Slope Face If The Slope Face Dip Azimuth Is 200 Degrees And The Fault D 1 (69.87 KiB) Viewed 41 times
QUESTION 24 "Given a fault that daylights to a slope face, if the slope face dip azimuth is 200 degrees, and the fault dip azimuth is 190 degrees, a planar failure can occur along the fault (true or false)." QUESTION 25 The direction of sliding of kinematically permissible wedges is restrictive than that of plane failures because two planes with a wide range of orientations form release surfaces. less QUESTION 26 "If the pole of the line of intersection of the two discontinuities is daylighting on the slope face, wedge failure is possible (true or false)." QUESTION 27 "For a toppling failure to occur, the dip direction of the discontinuities dipping into the face (opposite dip azimuth) must be within about degrees of the dip direction of the face."
QUESTION 28 "Given near-vertical-dipping bedding planes with dip azimuth of 10 degrees, and a slope face with a dip azimuth of 190 degrees, a toppling failure can occur (true or false)." QUESTION 29 "Given near-vertical-dipping bedding planes with dip azimuth of 30 degrees, and a slope face with a dip azimuth of 190 degrees, a toppling failure can occur (true or false)." QUESTION 30 "Given near-vertical-dipping bedding planes with dip azimuth of 350 degrees, and a slope face with a dip azimuth of 190 degrees, a toppling failure can occur (true or false)."
