Was curious,
is there a place that has statistics of the more common methods of failure related to each species. (someone was working on a data base years ago)
The hazzard tree eval guide says monterey cypress rarely fail as a whole tree, and i usually see limb and upper trunk failures.
But i need some data to prove to a landowning corporation that their tennants are at risk.
The thing that sucks is i'm the 3rd arborist to see these trees, Heck an asca arborist/ forrester already saw the trees, i think the corp is shopping for oppinions, only this time a copy of my report has to go to the state housing authority to answer a complaint.
I worked up each tree using the standard hazzard eval form, performed a partial root crown excavation, drilled a few damaged looking roots, drilled some seams in the trunk, and have sounded the trunk using a rubber mallet.
I just want to bolster my info with some statistics showing their failure rate as a species.
Any serious comments would help, thanks tree housers
