Tree rigging plans

A tree-rigging plan considers the material being controlled, system configuration, available supports and potential targets. Start with restricted access site, verify equipment status, and use the result to maintenance.

Decision guide

A tree-rigging plan considers the material being controlled, system configuration, available supports and potential targets.

01

Starting condition

Restricted access site is the use or operating condition applied to this treecarework.cyou record. Confirm the actual site conditions and available evidence before applying the guidance.

02

Decision factor

Equipment status is a decision factor that must be observed, measured, or checked in appropriate documentation. Record the method, conditions, and uncertainty where relevant.

03

Question answered

Use equipment instructions, condition, use, and recorded history to plan inspection and maintenance by appropriately qualified people.

04

Countercheck

Planned tree pruning is the use or operating condition applied to this treecarework.cyou record. Confirm the actual site conditions and available evidence before applying the guidance. Tree condition is a decision factor that must be observed, measured, or checked in appropriate documentation. Record the method, conditions, and uncertainty where relevant.

Compare conditions

Apply Tree rigging plans differently as the operating condition and decision factor change.

What a complete answer should include

Tree-care information covering tree observations, work positioning, pruning objectives, rigging plans and equipment inspection.

Common mistakes to avoid

What to check next

  1. Record tree observations and surrounding targets
  2. Define the proposed tree-care objective
  3. Review access, equipment and rescue arrangements
  4. Use qualified arboricultural and utility personnel as appropriate

Frequently asked questions

What tree condition and surrounding targets are observed?

A tree-rigging plan considers the material being controlled, system configuration, available supports and potential targets. Restricted access site is the use or operating condition applied to this treecarework.cyou record. Confirm the actual site conditions and available evidence before applying the guidance.

What is the intended pruning or removal objective?

Equipment status is a decision factor that must be observed, measured, or checked in appropriate documentation. Record the method, conditions, and uncertainty where relevant. Planned tree pruning is the use or operating condition applied to this treecarework.cyou record. Confirm the actual site conditions and available evidence before applying the guidance. Tree condition is a decision factor that must be observed, measured, or checked in appropriate documentation. Record the method, conditions, and uncertainty where relevant.

Which access, rigging and rescue arrangements are documented?

The record identifies the exact equipment, material and work scope being reviewed.

Are utilities or public access within the work area?

Do not treat a visual observation as a structural load rating.
