    This document discusses three types of duplex structures that can form in sedimentary basins: 1) a hinterland dipping duplex where thrust sheets dip towards the hinterland, 2) a foreland dipping duplex where thrust sheets dip towards the foreland, and 3) an antiformal stack where thrust sheets are stacked vertically on top of each other forming an antiformal structure.
