Imbricate Thrust Systems is a structural geological construct consisting of a series of parallel or subparallel thrust faults that overlap in a step-like fashion, distinguishing it from isolated thrusts by its characteristic stacked, horse-like fault-bounded slices within a compressional tectonic regime.
