TRAQ Practice Exam
Target characteristics are evaluated as part of - answer both likelihood and
consequences assessments
The magnitude of a bending moment depends on the - answer amount of force and
length of the lever arm
Compression or extension of new wood cells under bending loads is greater than the
deformation experienced by inner wood cells because - answerouter cells experience
the greatest torsional, compressive and tension stress
Risk assessment should include residual risk after mitigation to - answerhelp the risk
manager in decision-making to achieve acceptable risk levels
The two natural forces that exert loads on trees are - answergravity and wind
Lines formed where two edges of bark at a crack or wound meet are called -
answerseams
Another name of an "advanced" assessment is - answerLevel 3
Tree risk assessors should inform clients that - answertree risk assessments represent
the condition of the tree at the time of inspection
Risk is defined as - answerthe combination of the likelihood of an event and the severity
of the potential consequenses
Longitudinal bulges of response growth - answercan be an indication of an internal
crack
Tree failure in normal wind speeds are usually associated with - answerserious,
uncorrected or unmitigated structural defects or other conditions alone or in combination
With the exception of sudden branch drop, tree failures in the absences of wind, ice, or
snow are - answerusually associated with significant defects
Stratifying and prioritizing targets is used for - answerclassifying targets according to
value
Risk is evaluated by categorizing or quantifying the risk and then - answercomparing it
to the client's acceptable risk threshold to determine the significance
