4. Tree WorksJun 2018TREES A-C of G1 - MWA Arboricultural report Works - REMOVE Reason: The above trees are considered to be responsible for root induced clay shrinkage subsidence damage to the rear of the subject property. Investigations in to the damage have been conducted and the following information/evidence obtained: 1. Engineering opinion is that damage is due to clay shrinkage subsidence. 2. Foundations are bearing on to clay. 3. The clay subsoil has a medium to very high volume change potential (NHBC Guidelines). 4. A comparison between moisture content and the plastic and liquid limits suggests desiccation in TH/BH1 & TH/BH2 (February 2017). 5. Live lime roots were recovered from below foundation depth in TP/BH1 & 2 to a depth of 3.0m below ground level. 6. The observed desiccation is coincident with recorded root activity. 7. Desiccation is at depths beyond ambient soil drying effects and entirely consistent with the soil drying effects of significant vegetation. 8. Level monitoring for the period 18/05/2017 to 29/03/2018 has recorded a cyclical pattern of movement indicative of the effects of the lime trees on soil moisture and volumes to the rear of the property. The uplift phase of the building can only be attributable to an expanding clay soil from a desiccated (shrunken) state due to the soil drying effects of the trees. 9. Drains are remote from the area of damage can be discounted as a causal factor given the recorded desiccation and by reference to the level monitoring data. No significant defects were recorded to the drainage system. 10. No tree works have been carried during the period of the claim or in the recent past. 11. A root barrier may be viable the cost of which currently estimated at ?12k - ?15k. Established evidential and legal tests pertinent to subsidence damage claims have been met and the evidence confirms that on the balance of probabilities there can be no other cause of the movement and associated damage other than the indirect inf...Decision
