The TreeScaffold is a cost-effective and innovative way to deal with storm-damaged trees. A tree scaffold can support trees from the ground up to a height of 16’. It is an effective risk mitigation support for trees on houses or power lines in which preventing shock-loading, sliding, settling, or other movement is a priority. Arborists have used tree scaffolds of a homemade variety for decades. This system eases installation and allows for a greater ease in calculating a rated load.
The Tree Scaffold is assembled beneath a tree using conventional 6*6 timbers and a typical installation can be done in one hour by a team of two workers. Although the final rating depends on several factors, these scaffold assemblies can hold up to 40,000 pounds of downward force if assembly instructions are followed.
