This structure is a synthetic tree. It measures 7 m in height. There is the trunk and branches. An inflatable balloon represents the leaves. With the balloon opened, the tree reaches 10 m in height. The tree structure is made of steel and aluminum. It has three legs at 120 degrees apart. The legs join at a third of the height to form a single trunk. The branches protrude from the trunk. The legs and trunk and made of steel, the branches are in aluminum. The whole structure was designed to meet the NBCC 2005 standards. The tree may be assembled and disassembled. This tree was meant to be used outdoor. Thus it ought to be anchored in order to resist the wind pressure.
