There are, however, different gradations of cut protection. These are calculated on the basis of the speed of the chainsaw which a certified boot is able to stop if an emergency occurs. Cut protection extends across classes I to IV. The relevant speeds to which these categories apply are 20, 24, 28 and 32 m\/s respectively. However, as our tree surgeon points out: \u201cNo one will go up a tree whilst wearing a boot which is cut protection class 3 or higher.\u201d He immediately expands upon the logic behind this. \u201cThe more cut protection a boot has, the heavier it will be. That stands to reason.\u201d If there is one thing that is important for tree-climbing professionals, \u201cthen it is lightness.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ffffff\">Today, this becomes an irrevocable part of the developers\u2019 requirements specifications. The workshop continues in the same vein throughout the rain-swept day. Tree climbing, tree felling and back again. Problems are addressed by the side of the tree. Possible solutions are discussed in the seminar room to finish with. The importance of signal colors, the reinforcement of vulnerable points, opportunities for innovation and simple matters such as the tread of the sole are all debated. <\/span>[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=&#8221;No Line&#8221; custom_height=&#8221;50&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=&#8221;full_width_background&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; bg_color=&#8221;#cbced0&#8243; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; text_color=&#8221;dark&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; row_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; row_border_radius_applies=&#8221;bg&#8221; overflow=&#8221;visible&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; shape_divider_position=&#8221;bottom&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; shape_type=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column column_padding=&#8221;no-extra-padding&#8221; column_padding_tablet=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_phone=&#8221;inherit&#8221; column_padding_position=&#8221;all&#8221; column_element_direction_desktop=&#8221;default&#8221; column_element_spacing=&#8221;default&#8221; desktop_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; tablet_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; phone_text_alignment=&#8221;default&#8221; background_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; background_hover_color_opacity=&#8221;1&#8243; column_backdrop_filter=&#8221;none&#8221; column_shadow=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_radius=&#8221;none&#8221; column_link_target=&#8221;_self&#8221; column_position=&#8221;default&#8221; gradient_direction=&#8221;left_to_right&#8221; overlay_strength=&#8221;0.3&#8243; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243; tablet_width_inherit=&#8221;default&#8221; animation_type=&#8221;default&#8221; bg_image_animation=&#8221;none&#8221; border_type=&#8221;simple&#8221; column_border_width=&#8221;none&#8221; column_border_style=&#8221;solid&#8221;][divider line_type=&#8221;No Line&#8221; custom_height=&#8221;50&#8243;][vc_column_text]\n<h1><span style=\"color: #002b55\"><strong>Learning what matters<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n[\/vc_column_text][divider line_type=&#8221;No Line&#8221; custom_height=&#8221;20&#8243;][vc_column_text]<span style=\"color: #002b55\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW225827559 BCX4\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW148156912 BCX4\">By the end of the day, everyone <\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun ContextualSpellingAndGrammarErrorV2Themed SCXW148156912 BCX4\">has<\/span><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW148156912 BCX4\"> learned a lot from one another.
