Tree Protection Detail

The following is a list of activities that are not allowed within the RPA or within the vicinity of the trees being retained.

o Protect tree root systems from damage caused by runoff or spillage of noxious materials while mixing, placing, or storing construction materials.

o Protect root systems from ponding, eroding, or excessive wetting caused during construction operations

o Do not store construction materials, debris, or excavated material inside tree protection zones. When excavating, place excavated soil on opposite side of trench away from the tree.

o Do not permit vehicles or foot traffic within tree protection zones; prevent soil

compaction over root systems. o Do not allow fires under or adjacent to remaining trees or other plants.

o Do not attach notice boards, cables or other services to any part of the tree.o Do not use neighbouring trees as anchor points.o Do not use high machinery such as Tele porters, cranes or other equipment

close to trees to avoid damage to the crown or any other parts.

The tree protection fencing is to be erected enclosing the root protection areas around the trees being retained as shown on this drawing and

appendix 1 In some areas, the site hoarding may be sufficient to act as the protective fencing if the tree and its root zone are positioned outside and no works are envisaged within the area outside the site hoarding. This will need to be discussed and agreed at the initial site meeting.

Where tree protection fencing is needed, this will need to be 2.3m high and constructed in accordance with figure 2 of BS 5837 2012(see detail on drawing & appendix 1) using vertical and horizontal scaffold bars or similar well braced together with the verticals spaced out at a maximum of 3m centres. Onto this, weld mesh panels (harris fecne panels) are to be securely fixed with wire or

scaffold clamps.

Signs are to be attached to these fences warning people that this is a protective area and that the fencing must be maintained in good condition in accordance with the approved plans and drawings for this development.

Once the protective fence line is erected, then the main construction works can commence on site.
