Protection of Trees, Vegetation and Animals During Construction Work

Protection of trees, vegetation and animals during construction work

Construction companies are legally obliged to protect trees in the vicinity of their construction site. As a minimum, DIN 18920 Protection of trees during construction work must be observed. Trees in cities have a hard time. If there is a building site, this often means the end. However, with the right will and a few measures, many trees could remain standing.

These statutes are based on, among other things

• DIN 18920 (Protection of trees, plant stands and vegetation areas during construction work) and
• RAS-LP4 (Guidelines for the construction of roads. Part: Landscape conservation, Section 4: Protection of trees).
• ZTV tree care
• DWA-M162
