A–5–3. 5.3—Asymmetric overturned
Folds can be symmetrical or asymmetrical The former is when the fold limbs have an equal but opposite angle of dip Asymmetrical folds are those where one limb dips at a different amount than the other Many folds are overturned; both limbs dip in the same direction Lastly intensely folded rocks might even be tilted right back to horizontal

Overturned folds would have dips that trend in the same direction (Figure 7) Another thing to note is that the strike for both limbs in all of these examples are parallel This is characteristic of all folds that have a horizontal disposition (such as the example in Figure 6)

What is an overturned fold in geology?
What is overturned fold? An overturned fold, or overfold, has the axial plane inclined to such an extent that the strata on one limb are overturned. A recumbent fold has an essentially horizontal axial plane.
What is the difference between recumbent and overturned folds?
These criteria contrast with the definition of standard overturned folds, where both limbs dip in the same direction, and with recumbent folds, which are defined by near-horizontal axial surfaces (e.g. Fleuty, 1964) rather than the relative orientation of the limbs, and are characteristically tight to isoclinal.
What is the difference between asymmetrical and overturned fold?
An asymmetrical fold is one in which the axial plane is inclined. An overturned fold, or overfold, has the axial plane inclined to such an extent that the strata on one limb are overturned. Note that the ‘axial plane’ of a fold is a hypothetical plane that contains the axes of all the surfaces folded.
What is the symbology of overturned fold bends?
The proposed symbology has been submitted to the USGS and is under consideration for future adoption. Overturned fold bends are not a common fold class but may be locally important indicators of certain deformational regimes in moderately to severely deformed rocks.
