# Stable Crust Fault Sources
## Implementation note: Rupture properties
Fault sources in the stable crust tectonic setting of the central and eastern
U.S. are commonly constructed by stitching different groups of fault sections together. Under the
current implementation, properties of a rupture are governed by the first section defined in a
rupture-set. So, for example, the <90° dips of the Meeman-Selby section of the eastern Rift Margin
(south) and the the Reelfoot fault sections of the USGS and SSCn New Madrid models are commonly
overriden to be vertical faults. See also

)
.
## Implementation note: Rupture floating
Also note that magnitude scaling relations do not play a role in the modeling of stable-crust
ruptures. Although an assigned MFD magnitude would realistically be somewhat smaller than the
modeled rupture (if one were using a scaling relation), the rupture fills the full fault surface.
