Default Grevillea robusta Pruning

How do you prune these trees? Ive googled but google sucks and im still relatively new to pruning, removals sure, pruning maybe. I been asked to trim up a 13m Silly Oak but have minimal idea how to do it. Advise/pictures (pictures are guud) would be awesome.

Thanks

Usually you only deadwood.

Most of these are a little messy and tend to themselves OK. Rare to get included unions and rubbing branches.

Bet they want a lop job so it bushes up real nice.

They actually want it gone (building new house) but council is real strict on permits.
