Factors Affecting Earthwork Volume in Forest Road Construction on Steep Terrain

چکیده
Forest roads, as a prerequisite for high-quality forest management, should be optimally distributed in order to avoid negative environmental impacts and best fulfill their task. In the design phase of it is necessary know which factors influence most volume earthworks enable designer adapt terrain requirements. this paper impact an average cross slope carriageway value road on cut fill analyzed. The research was carried out area management unit Trovrh–Kik, characterized by irregular with slopes ranging between 27 58%, some micro locations even up 84%. On eight based standard cross-section profiles, (difference ground level grade level) per 1 m route obtained coefficients determination indicate strong correlation (R2 = 0.6841), moderate 0.5619). Unlike volume, weak 0.2076) or case 0.3167). basis analyzed determined that 0.051 m, where difference minimum actual ?0.09 m. It can concluded that, terrains large varying slopes, there no unique model factor could describe required construction road. However, beyond doubt increase caused aforementioned volumes.

Forest roads are the base infrastructure foundation of forestry operations. These roads entail a complex engineering effort because they can cause substantial environmental damage to forests and include a high-cost construction. This study was carried out in four sample sites of Giresun, Trabzon(2) and Artvin Forest Directorate, which is in the Black Sea region of Turkey. The areas have both st...
متن کاملImproving Accuracy in Earthwork Volume Estimation for Proposed Forest Roads Using a High-Resolution Digital Elevation Model
Nacrtak Earthwork usually represents the largest cost component in the construction of low-volume forest roads. Accurate estimates of earthwork volume are essential to forecast construction costs and improve the financial control of road construction operations. Traditionally, earthwork volumes are estimated using methods that consider ground data obtained from survey stations along road grade ...
