Parallel folds commonly form by a deformation mechanism called flexural slip, where folding is accommodated by motions on minor [[fault]]s that occur along some mechanical layering—usually bedding. Flexural-slip surfaces, which can be observed in [[core]] or [[outcrop]], may vary in spacing from a few millimeters to several tens of meters in spacing.
