Explore: Slabs (structural Geology)

Structural engineering is a sub-discipline of civil engineering in which structural engineers are trained to design the 'bones and joints' that create

to the erosion of concentric slabs. Commonly follow topography. Divide the rock into sub-planar[when defined as?] slabs. Joint spacing increases with

upper part of post-subduction, stalled slabs that are altered by seawater. Shallow subduction of young, buoyant slabs can result in the production of adakitic

retrograde trench migration (slab rollback) (2–4 cm/yr) is a result of flattened slabs at the 660-km discontinuity where the slab does not penetrate into the
