Studies have shown that, although not all trees cause root damage, the speed and extent of root damage vary by tree species. Through preventive risk identification, trees that could potentially cause root damage can be treated early to prevent damage to both aboveground facilities and underground pipelines.<\/p>\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_356701331\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1020\" height=\"638\" src=\"https:\/\/greenmax.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Wat-is-wortelopdruk-GreenMax-Blog-3-1280x800.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"Wat is wortelopdruk - GreenMax Blog (3)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/greenmax.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Wat-is-wortelopdruk-GreenMax-Blog-3-1280x800.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/greenmax.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Wat-is-wortelopdruk-GreenMax-Blog-3-640x400.jpg 640w, https:\/\/greenmax.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Wat-is-wortelopdruk-GreenMax-Blog-3-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/greenmax.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Wat-is-wortelopdruk-GreenMax-Blog-3-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/greenmax.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Wat-is-wortelopdruk-GreenMax-Blog-3-1536x960.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/greenmax.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Wat-is-wortelopdruk-GreenMax-Blog-3.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1020px) 100vw, 1020px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_356701331 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div id=\"gap-1898010693\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block; height:auto;\">\n\t\t\n<style>\n#gap-1898010693 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<p>Trees need an extensive root system to survive, meaning their roots can spread far and wide. A tree is an &#8220;opportunist&#8221; and takes every opportunity to extract moisture and nutrients from the soil. In urban areas, where space is limited and the ground is often covered with concrete and asphalt, roots come into conflict with infrastructure. The quest for water and nutrients leads to roots making their way under and through urban infrastructure, causing root heave.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 75%;\"><strong>The Consequences of Root Heave<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Root heave not only leads to an unattractive public space but can also have structural consequences for the integrity of buildings and even traffic safety. Cyclists, skateboarders, rollerbladers, walkers, or motorcyclists who do not see root heave in time can trip or even cause accidents. When tree roots affect the integrity of roads and buildings or cause underground damage to cables and pipelines, this leads to costly repairs and even safety risks.<\/p>\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_323901197\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1020\" height=\"638\" src=\"https:\/\/greenmax.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Wat-is-wortelopdruk-GreenMax-Blog-4-1280x800.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"Wat is wortelopdruk - GreenMax Blog (4)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/greenmax.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Wat-is-wortelopdruk-GreenMax-Blog-4-1280x800.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/greenmax.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Wat-is-wortelopdruk-GreenMax-Blog-4-640x400.jpg 640w, https:\/\/greenmax.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Wat-is-wortelopdruk-GreenMax-Blog-4-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/greenmax.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Wat-is-wortelopdruk-GreenMax-Blog-4-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/greenmax.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Wat-is-wortelopdruk-GreenMax-Blog-4-1536x960.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/greenmax.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Wat-is-wortelopdruk-GreenMax-Blog-4.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1020px) 100vw, 1020px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_323901197 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div id=\"gap-734727482\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block; height:auto;\">\n\t\t\n<style>\n#gap-734727482 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 75%;\"><strong>Management and Prevention of Root Heave<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Managing root heave requires careful planning and design.
