Installation Rules

Installation rules and dimensions:

Dynamic breaking-bracing:

  
Installation at 2/3 of the stem height
  
Install as horizontally as possible
  
Do not impede the natural oscillation behaviour, but softly cushion strong deflections
  
No overdimensioning so as to avoid increased stress by too rigid systems

 

Static breaking-bracing:

  
Installation at 2/3 of the stem height
  
Install as horizontally as possible
  
Lowest-possible rope elongation is most important, therefore the tensile strength should correspond to at least twice the tensile strength of a dynamic breaking-bracing

Load/support-bracing:

  
Use static systems
  
Do not install shock absorbers
  
Install as vertically as possible
  
Dimension the system according to the expected branch weight and maximum holding force of the crown

Note: a combination of breaking and load-bracing may be useful in individual cases!
