TY - JOUR T1 - Hardscape Damage by Tree Roots JF - Arboriculture & Urban Forestry (AUF) JO - JOA SP - 272 LP - 276 DO - 10.48044/jauf.2001.029 VL - 27 IS - 5 AU - Lawrance M. Lesser Y1 - 2001/09/01 UR - http://auf.isa-arbor.com/content/27/5/272.abstract N2 - Tree root damage to hardscape is a problem for most cities, costing millions of dollars annually statewide for repairs and associated legal expenses. There is a need to systematically identify which tree species are the most often associated with hardscape damage, so that urban tree managers can make appropriate species selections. This study uses TreeKeeper® data to compile a listing of those species most often associated with hardscape damage in three southern California cities, and compares results from another study. ER -
