What is Folds and Cleavage on Stereonets about?

Folds and cleavage form perpendicular to the maximum compressive stress direction. When cleavage develops during folding, it will lie parallel to the axial planes of the folds. As a result, both the axial planes and cleavage will plot parallel to each other on a stereonet. Additionally, the intersection lineation of bedding and cleavage will lie parallel to the fold hinges and cluster close to the fold axes on the stereonet.
