Structural Tree Support Systems
1-day Module
This course is designed to introduce traditional tree bolting, cable and bracing tools and techniques. Emphasis is placed on evaluating trees structurally and determining appropriate support systems based on tree value, condition, and legal liability implications. Tree dynamics and biology are explained and related to support systems and natural tree compensative processes. Practical time is spent on installing a non-invasive tree support system.

Eligibility Recommendations: Tree workers, landscapers, nursery staff, golf course staff and gardeners of any level of experience and knowledge.
