receptor
-May contribute
to minor health
problem.

tree
Trees with aggressive or large root systems can
cause structural damage when planted too close to
the Kompleks Akademik E. Roots can also damage
patios, driveways, walkways and underground pipes
Do not plant trees close to the building that can
pose a hazard. Limbs that overhang roofs can drop
leaves or pine needles that need to be regularly
removed, lest they clog gutters, rooftop drainage or
damage the roofing material and structure
Large trees, up to 70 feet or more should be planted
at least 20 feet from the building, medium-sized
trees up to 70 feet tall, 15 feet from the building,
and small trees 30 feet tall or less, 8 to 10 feet from
the building.
