An analysis of the slackpulling forces encountered in manual thinning carriages

Creator:: Iff, Ronald H.
Abstract:: The popularity of gravity-return skyline logging systems is now increasing in the Western United States. Simplicity seems to be the basis for their success. While two drum yarders are most commonly used, ·some systems, such as the Wyssen, use only a single drum for yarding. Carriages commonly used with these...

Preliminary planning of forest roads using ARC GRID

Creator:: Xu, Shenglin
Abstract:: Forest road planning is importaht in logging operations, because it can affect feasibility and cost of forest operations. Due to rapid advances in computer hardware, GIS software, and remote sensing techniques, computer forest road planning models using GIS are becoming practical. DEM data at 30 meter resolution are common and...

An assessment of fall chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tschawytscha) spawning habitat for present and pre-impoundment river conditions in a section of the John Day Reservoir, Columbia River

Creator:: Sheer, Mindi B.
Abstract:: The Columbia River system in the Pacific Northwest is currently comprised of a series of reservoirs, resulting from regulation of river flow due to a series of hydroelectric dams. A return to pre-dam conditions might improve salmon (Oncorhynchus sp.) survival rates and increase migration efficiency. This study modeled both historic...

Selecting wire rope design factors in cable yarding: a review and proposal

Creator:: Rheinberger, Steven Joseph
Abstract:: Traditional rationale for design factors is briefly reviewed. Methodologies for determining these traditional design factors are lacking and are usually based upon subjective reasons which result in applying a design factor of 3.0 in all cases (western United States). Factors which affect wire rope life are discussed. These factors include...
