Thank you so much! From a college geological engineering student. You have made it click when hours of struggling to make it make sense, were in vain. Hugs to you!
@@ruppertrocksgeology yes agreed!! Would be willing to make a video on how to make a “structural” cross section? Or an example of one in the future? There’s lots of videos that try on here but I feel like you would explain in such a clear way! :-)
@@marilynjubileerose Can you give me an example of an existing video so I know what sort of detail you are looking for? I would of course approach it in a different way/style, but I am just trying to see what you are needing.
I'm very grateful to have your video ma'am. Literally I was finding a video so that I can do my college practical but I wasn't able to find any video after searching around half an hour I got this. I don't know how to thank you. Love from India 🇮🇳
Hi, this video is explained very well but i have a question, what should i do if i only have the values of a and b? Non of the contours have any altitude data. Thanks
In this case you assume the surface is flat and there is no change in elevation. So you do the same thing done here and intersect it with a flat surface.
I am new to this and for me it’s hard to convert a tropographic map with some outcrops into a coloured map. How do I create a coloured mass from some sparce outcrops? Then for the cross section it’s the same thing, and how to you express the notions of true/appearant dip and vertical/true thickness, There should be an entire course on the subject…
What class are you taking? These questions start to fall deeper into a Structural Geology class where you do spend a whole class learning how to do this. I am going to try and make an "apparent dip/true thickness" video at some point - probably on the semester break!
