follow an emergency turn manouevre ( the construction of which is the operators responsibility
Be very careful, here. You need to ask the performance engineer company that provides your take-off runway analyses charts to how far from lift off is their surveyed obstacle clearance charts valid. Some operators cut off their charts validity a lot closer than you might hope. That leaves the pilot in a no-man's land of possible critical terrain and wearing responsibility for his own obstacle clearance.
