Abstract
► Two sets of strike-slip faults have Y- and X- intersections and form a network. ► The strike-slip network consists of conjugate, antithetic and synthetic systems. ► Conjugate faulting has two fault sets, little or no rotation of fault blocks. ► Domino faulting is characterised by rotation on a dominant fault set. ► Domino faulting accommodates higher strains than conjugate faulting.
