This book was released on 1999 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Presents production and cost data for a mechanized and cut-to-length (CTL) harvester used in a single-tree and group-selection cut on the Groton State Forest in central Vermont. For trees whose average volume (size) was 7 to 18 ft|p3|s, production ranged from 464 to 734 ft|p3|s per productive machine hour (PMH). The cycle time for processing trees into bunches to forward to a landing ranged from about 1 minute to 1.72 minutes per tree. There was little above-ground residual stand damage. The cost of the CTL harvesting system was $146.72 per PMH."--Abstract.
Download or read book Principles And Methods Of Harvesting Timber written by Nelson Courtlandt Brown and published by Daya Books. This book was released on 2002 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Book Describes The Principles And Methods Of Logging Operations In All The Timber Regions. Logging Is The Important Part Of Forestry In Which Our Woods Are Treated And A Future Supply Of Timber Is Assured Or The Areas Are Left In Unproductive Conditions. It Is An Epic Story Of Courage, Great Hazards And Difficulties Overcome, Success And Failure In A Struggle To Provide Some Of The Necessities Of Mankind. A More Scientific Approach Has Been Made To The Problems Of Logging, And The Profitability Of Removing The Logs Of Different Species And Sizes From Our Woods Has Been More Accurately Determined. Mechanized Logging Has Made Important Advances Especially Feeling, Bucking, And Log Loading. Progress In Prelogging, Relogging, Integrated Logging, And Salvage Cuttings Has Presented New Phases Of The Industry That Are Important In Handling Our Forest Resources. It Is Hoped That This Book Will Help The Student And Possibly The Operator To Gain A Better Understanding Of Some Of The Logging Methods.
