Validating wind load analyses for static pulling tests
Three studies compared the wind load estimated from dynamic measurements of root plate tilt in storms to the results of a standard pulling test software. For most trees, both estimates were in close agreement.
Correlation of wind speed and root plate tilt of trees in urban environment
A wind-tilt-curve can be used to assess the anchorage of urban trees.
Correlation of wind speed and root plate tilt of trees in urban environment
Tilt of > 0,2° at wind speed of 50-60 km/h leads to critical tilt values at gale winds.
