I assume you are thinking of a drag fold in which the drag is found entirely on one wall. Such a fold is only possible on normal faults. The example I used is on a reverse fault to illustrate the drag on both sides. Regardless of where exactly the drag appears, the key feature of a drag fold is simply one side being "dragged" beneath/behind the other, making it appear to overlap. Here are some images to illustrate my point: Normal fault drag: blogs.agu.org/mountainbeltway/files/2015/06/Allen-FF-5a.jpg Reverse fault drag: www.rci.rutgers.edu/~schlisch/structureslides/dragfold2.GIF Hope that helps!
1:44 Folding can be caused by an extensional regime, not only compressional
