Tree Stability Assessment
Treework Environmental Practice provides services for the detailed assessment of valued trees using the most advanced tools available within current arboriculture.
Static Load Test and Tree Structural Assessment
The static load test is the most up-to-date and detailed method for assessing tree stability. This has proved successful in both saving trees thought to be unsafe and thus condemned to be felled and for increasing public safety by identifying trees that are critically unstable.
This is achieved by measuring both the bending strength of the tree stem and the anchoring strength of the tree roots.
Static Load Test and Tree Structural Assessment Provides:
- An understanding of the structural stability of tree roots (previously inaccessible)
- Recommendations for retaining valuable trees thought previously to be unsafe
- Guidance on the maximum, stable height of a tree
- An understanding of the effects of `wind load` on a tree`s stability
