In this paper, the elements of main folds style in the Alborz – Central, Iran border zone, were investigated. In this respect, cylindricity, symmetry, style of a folded surface, style of a folded layer and style of a folded multilayer were evaluated. Finally, fold style characteristics and young history of folding in the studied area were indentified. In addition, two main mechanisms (Buckle and Detachment Folding) were distinguished.
