Default Re: Tree Protection on Development Sites, are there any Australian Standards?

Here's the neighbours house, also has 2 grey gums in the yard.

These particular grey gums I have found to be quite brittle and after storms more damaged than others.



Here's the one on the left, note the brick pillar's proximity, the concrete driveway, house, path, damaged trunk, turf and the buried trunk now.



And this is the right one, note the buried trunk, damaged trunk, turf, grade change retaining wall.
