Abstract:
Timber haulage is the last phase of the raw timber production process, necessary to transport timber to the customer. To improve the efficiency of logging truck operations, it is necessary to observe and assess several operational parameters through the electronic systems installed on the logging trucks. Measurements for this study were conducted for three logging truck types, which hauled 24,648 m3 of timber over 54,857 km and 1232 round trips. The RMC system was used for truck monitoring, equipped with a CAP04 capacitance sensor and a WGS 48 GPS module. The monitoring was continuous, lasting

Abstract:
Back haulage or triangle routes are a suitable means of achieving a reduction in empty runs in timber transport. The calculation is done using linear programs. One problem with linear programs is the high complexity caused by the combinatorics involved in generating the routes. This can be reduced if the characteristics of back haulage or triangle routes are taken into account. The complexity then drops drastically and well-compatible linear programs are obtained. The methodology presented in this study was tested for the harvest sizes of the 2015 fiscal year of the Bavarian State Forest Enter

Abstract:
The forest industry in Scotland depends for its economic survival on the efficiency with which it can get the felled timber to the mill. This efficiency is shown to depend on pavement quality, particularly the aggregates used; the truck fleet available to extract the timber; and the interaction of these two factors and the legislative regime, including taxation, under which the forest traffic operates. Although there is a high degree of cooperation within the forest industry—pavement constructors, haulage companies, public and private forest owners, and local government authorities—there is ne

Abstract The main reasons restraining the efficiency of timber trucks (hauling tractors with semi-trailers) have been considered. A promising direction has been proposed making it possible to increase the efficiency of hauling tractors with semi-trailers. This direction consists in the development and study of a recuperative bunk device for a timber haulage site, installed on a logging tractor. The aim of the research consisted of two stages. At the first stage, a mathematical model for the functioning of the recuperative bunk device of the logging site, installed on a timber truck has been de

The place of road transport in logging production has been considered. The main advantages of using timber tractors with timber drags in comparison with other layout schemes of timber road trains have been described. Conse-quences of dynamic loads acting on the pivot of the turning bunk of a timber-carrying area from frequent braking of a timber tractor with a timber drag have been given. Based on the analysis of scientific works of foreign scientists, the promising direction of research in the field of recuperation of various types of energy in road transport is substantiated, which makes it

Abstract:
Forest roads are characterized by low traffic, but heavy timber haulage trucks have a significant influence on road conditions and usually exceed the limit of 80–100 kN per axle. The excessive weight of the trucks degrades the road surface and the forest environment. This article presents the results of a study of timber transport loads from their places of acquirement (forest districts) to the recipient (a large sawmill). The analysis includes the parameters of the timber transport vehicles and focuses especially on the gross vehicle weight (GVW), the total weight of empty truck and tra

Abstract:
The decline is a major excavation in metalliferous mining since it provides the main means of access to the underground and serves as a haulage route for underground trucks. However, conventional mining of the decline to access the ore body poses economic and technical challenges that require innovative responses. The average cross-sectional area of mine declines in Australia is 5m wide x 5m high. The large excavations associated with current underground mining practices are economically and geotechnically inappropriate, especially for narrow vein mining conditions. The decline gradient of 1 i

This chapter offers a detailed consideration of London’s labour market, exploring the high degree of seasonality that applied in a reconstruction of London’s Roman working year. The harbour relied on inputs of manual labour and ox-drawn haulage, serving the needs of dozens of vessels docked against the quays or beached on the river foreshore. Demand was intensive during the summer sailing season, but negligible in the winter. London’s construction industry was similarly labour-intensive and seasonal. These demands combined to present high levels of labour demand from spring to autumn, interrup

In case of failure, a safety braking system must prevent the cabin from rolling back along the track rope.
