Geology for Engineers: Geological maps 6. How to find and underlying contact (not outcropping)
An underlying contact is a geological structure (layer, fault...) that is not directly crossed in the line of your cross section, because is not outcropping in surface. Nevertheless, it must appear in your cross section in order to fully solve and understand the geological structure. This short tutorial shows you how to find and draw an underlying contact. I apologize for the qualitiy of the videorecord, but my 11 years old video assistant did his best :-)

Geology for Engineers: Geological Maps 4. Organize your data. Strike, Dip Direction, True & App. Dip
zhlédnutí 2,1KPřed 3 lety
When solving a geological map is important to have all your data well organized. It is a common mistake to misconfuse the true dip and apparent dip. Having all these data organized will help you to avoid errors. In this tutorial you'll learn how to do it.
Geology for Engineers: Geological Maps 5. How to adjust topography to geology in cross section
zhlédnutí 5KPřed 3 lety
One of the most common problems that you can find when drawing your geologic cross section is that the topography doesn't fit to the dip of the layers, causing wrong interpretations. This is commonly caused because the topography is not enough precise. So you have to make some readjustements in order that everything fits correctly. In the medium to final part of this tutorial, you'll see how to...
Geology for Engineers: Geological maps 3. Calculate True Dip & Apparent Dip
zhlédnutí 5KPřed 3 lety

The apparent dips are obtained by two methods: graphically and calculated using the angle between the strike and the direction of the desired cross section (Theta')

    Hi I don't get how you got the 15mm when you compute the difference of 700 and 400 elevation. Would you mind to elaborate? I don't understand since the camera did not show the scaling you used in the ruler. Thanks!

    • @alexmonrasalvarez1398
      @alexmonrasalvarez1398 Před 7 měsíci

      700-400=300m. The scale is 1:20000, then 1cm=200m, if you have 300m altitude difference, then you have 200m(1cm=10mm)+100m(0.5cm=5mm) therefore 15mm or 1.5cm or 300m.

    • @joanmartinezbofill3977
      @joanmartinezbofill3977 Před 2 lety

      Hi Flora, I'm happy that you liked the video. Regarding to your question, in this case you have to use the true dip because the cross section is perpendicular to the layers. In any other situation, when the cross section is forming an angle different of 90º with the layers or other geological structures, you've to use the apparent dip. You can learn how to calculate it in this video: czcams.com/video/hI_g0TOeVaQ/video.html Best regards Joan

    • @joanmartinezbofill3977
      @joanmartinezbofill3977 Před 3 lety

      Hi MegaKASPER31, I supose that you are working with igneous rocks, which are usually classified by using the Strekeisen ternary diagrams, also known as QAPF diagrams. You should previously identify and classify each type of rock using their essential minerals (quartz, plagioclase, alcali feldspar and feldspathoids). At this point you may need the use of petrographic thin sections. Then mark the boundaries in the map. Most rocks can appear to look the same when are seen in the field, but when you get a little bit into detail you can see the differences and you'll be able to mark the contact between the different igneous bodies. Hope you find the answer useful. Best regards

      Hi SiMBA, make sure that the topographical scales are correct. When the topography is not properly drawn, then everything goes wrong. Another very important issue is to correctly calculate and draw the apparent dip in your cross section.
