Reseña del editor

Excerpt from Estimating Log-Making Costs in the Central States, 1965

For the two-man crews one man was designated as crew chief. He supervised the Operation, decided on the order the trees would be cut, and specified the felling direction for each tree. Otherwise the tasks were divided: while one man operated the saw, the other man was cutting brush, limbing, wedging, or marking the bole for buck ing. Assignments were rotated frequently to minimize fatigue. The Objective was to keep both men and the saw working productively as much of the time as possible.

Throughout the study, a technologist accompanied the log making crews to record production time and related data. He re mained in the background, however, and did not advise, supervise, or interfere with the crews. For each tree cut, species, diameter, merchantable height, basal area, mpe of adjacent land, gross and net volume of logs produced, and similar data were recorded. For each saw a record was kept Of fuel and Oil consumption. Each of the following activities was timed with a decimal-minute stopwatch.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive guide to optimizing the log-making process in hardwood logging operations. It presents findings from a study that investigated the impact of various factors on log-making efficiency. The author demonstrates that one-man crews consistently outperform two-man crews in terms of efficiency, making this book especially valuable for logging contractors seeking to reduce costs. Contrary to expectations, the study revealed that factors like tree species, topography, and type of power saw used had no significant impact on production rates. However, tree size and volume cut per acre were found to have a positive correlation with production rates. This book provides a practical method for estimating log-making costs, enabling logging contractors to plan their operations more effectively. By incorporating the insights offered in this book, logging contractors can enhance their productivity and profitability, making it an indispensable resource for anyone involved in the hardwood logging industry.
