    Trend of fold axis can be found by measuring the bearing and plunge amount of the fold axis. Bearing of fold axis means the plunge direction of the fold axis. Plunge amount means the inclination of fold axis with respect to horizontal line in a vertical plane. Same can also be measured on stereonet by plotting the structural elements.
