Default Re: Anne Frank Horse Chestnut Tree

A few architects, known for their great achievements all over the world in steel constructions, have designed a steel bracing system for the tree. Maybe it's a coincidence that the tree is standing in or close to their own backyard...

I personally think that this is not going to "hold the load" in case of a massive structural failure of the tree...
