Traq practice test
With with exception of sudden branch drop, tree failures in the absence of wind , ice, or
snow are - answer usually associated with significant defects
risk assessment should include residual risk after mitigation to - answerhelp the risk
manager in decision making to achieve acceptable risk levels
stratifying and prioritizing targets is used for - answerclassifying targets according to
value
Dead branches do not necessarily represent imminent failure - answerSome tree
species retain dead branches for many years
Risk is evaluated by categorizing or quantifying the risk and then - answerComparing it
to the clients acceptable risk threshold to determine the significance
Cankers or more likely to affect re stability if - answerMore than one third of the tree or
branch circumference is affected
The 4 categories of consequences of failure are - answerSevere, significant, minor,
negligible
A general term for various types of new wood produced in response to damage or loads
in order to compensate for higher strain (deformation) in the cambium and outer wood
cells is called - answerresponse growth
the magnitude of a bending moment depends on the - answerAmount of force and
length of the lever arm
In a basic assessment, after recording observations of site condition, defects, outward
signs of possible internal defect, and response growth, the next step is to -
answerAnalyze data to determine the likelihood and consequences of failure to evaluate
the degree of risk
Another name of an "advanced" assessment is - answerlevel 3
compression of extension of new wood cells under bending loads is greater than the
deformation experienced by inner wood cells because - answerouter cells experience
the greatest torsional, compressive, and tension stress
the two natural forces that exert loads on trees are - answergravity and wind
