Stratification helps the civil engineer to:
a- properly understand the nature of the ground and know what is underlying this ground, whether solid rocks or soil
b- develop an understanding of the permeability of the composite soil
c- develop an understanding of the mechanical properties of the ground such as its strength
d- ensure that the site is properly structured and suitable for the targeted project<span />
The lateral faults are created because of the immense force and pressure from the Mantle layer of the Earth towards the Crust layer, which breaks under that force and pressure. The Mantle layer is a layer of magma, melted metals, that has very high temperature and thus pressure. On certain points on the Earth, the Crust layer is thinner and cracks. That is accompanied by volcanic activity, earthquakes or both. Once the Crust is broken by the pressure and force from beneath, the pressure and force from the Mantle layer moves bit by bit in certain direction.
