FAQS

How is a high-risk tree identified?
A high-risk tree is one that has structural defects or declining health, increasing the likelihood that it may fail and cause serious harm to people or property.

Common signs of a high-risk tree include:
- Large cracks or cavities in the trunk
- Leaning toward areas with foot or vehicle traffic
- Major limbs or trunk sections that are decayed or dead
Such trees should be inspected and addressed promptly to ensure safety.
What is the standard tree risk assessment?
A standard tree risk assessment uses the formula:
Risk = Likelihood of failure × Likelihood of impact × Consequence of failure
To evaluate the probability of tree or branch failure and the potential risk it poses to people and property.
This assessment helps property owners, arborists, or governing bodies make informed decisions regarding tree maintenance, pruning, or removal. One widely adopted framework is the ISA Tree Risk Assessment Qualification (TRAQ).
What are the 5 things a risk assessment should include?
- Identify hazards — Recognize potential sources of harm.
- Assess the risks — Evaluate the likelihood and severity of harm occurring.
- Control the risks — Implement measures to eliminate or reduce the risks.
- Record your findings — Document the hazards, risk levels, and control measures.
- Review the controls — Regularly check and update the risk controls to ensure effectiveness.
What is the Australian standard for tree protection?
The main Australian standard for protecting trees on construction sites is AS 4970-2009 – Protection of trees on development sites. This standard provides guidance on how to assess, retain, and protect trees during construction, to ensure they are not damaged and can continue to grow healthily after the project is completed.
