Tree Protection on Construction Site Knowledge and Perception of Polish Professionals

The construction industry is the second largest industry of the country after agriculture. Construction activity is an integral part of country's infrastructure and industrial development and is poised for further growth on account of industrialization, urbanization, economic development and people's rising expectations for improved quality of living. It includes hospitals, schools, townships, offices, houses and other buildings urban infrastructure including water supply, sewerage, drainage highways, roads, ports, railways, airports, power systems irrigation and agriculture systems, telecommunications, etc. Building foundations, sidewalks, sewer lines, and roads can cause numerous changes in the environment. Post construction landscaping such as installing underground sprinklers, laying sod grass, and planting flowers and shrubs can further change the environment. Many of these changes can be devastating to trees. Appropriate engineering and natural compensation solutions can often prevent the common problems of tree damage, dieback or removal and are essential during the execution of construction works that expose trees to particular stresses.The discussion of engineering solutions, such as isolation of the root system zone, education of workers, etc. is provided in this paper. In this case study, the major focus is on the awareness of the people for tree protection at construction site and a survey to know the thoughts of experts, experienced, students over in the form of a survey.
