A transform plate boundary shears horizontally against each other. When one crust moves up, the other one moves down. A transform plate boundary produces the second worst earthquakes with (S) waves (Shear or secondary waves). Every boundary including a transform plate boundary are located on a fault.

What are plate boundary settings?
There are three main plate boundaries, convergent plate boundaries,divergent plate boundaries and transform fault boundaries. Convergent plate boundaries are when the plates collide together, this often causes mountain building. Divergent plate boundaries are when plates are moving apart, this is what caused the Mid Atlantic Ridges. Transform Fault Boundaries is when they move past each other horizontally, this boundary dosent cause any new landforms.

How do plates move at transform plate boundaries?
At transform boundaries, the plates move horizontal in relation to each other.
What are the tree types of plate boundaries?
Plate boundaries are places where two tectonic plates meet. There are three major types of plate boundaries. These are divergent, convergent, and transform plate boundaries.
What type of movement occurs at plate boundaries?
Convergent,Divergent, and Transform Boundaries
How does transform plate boundaries help divergent boundaries?
They divert stresses perpendicular to the transform boundary due to the curvature of the Earth.
What are the main types of tectonic plate boundaries?
There are three primary types of tectonic plate boundaries. They pertain of Divergent boundaries, Convergent boundaries and Transform-fault boundaries.
What are the three types plate boundaries?
Three types of plate boundaries are spreading boundaries, colliding boundaries, and sliding boundaries. um actually they are divergent, convergent, and transform
What type of plate boundary forms where two plates slide past one another?
That is called a boundary or a transform-fault boundary. :D
Where are earhthquakes most likely to occur?
On tectonic plate boundaries. The transform boundaries. :P
