Analysis of Tree Damage Caused by Excavated Materials at Forest Road Construction in Karst Region
Nacrtak Opening-up of forests enables the application of rational forestry, which means more productivity and suitability for sustainable use. Therefore, forest roads are one of the most important tools needed. This study investigates tree damage caused by excavated materials during forest road construction in a karst region. Bending, crushing andwoundingwere defined as tree damage because of e...
متن کاملGroundwater Contamination
INTRODUCTION In the southern United States, chemicals are an integral part of the management of bare-root nurseries. The rationale for using chemicals is based on economics as they can reduce hand labor, improve the use of valuable seed, and increase seedling performance. The cost of all chemicals associated with loblolly pine seedling production averages less than 0.2 cent per seedling. The co...
متن کاملUtilization of Soil Stabilization with Cement and Copper Slag as Subgrade Materials in Road Embankment Construction
In this study, unconfined compression tests have been conducted to investigate the impacts of copper slag on mechanical characteristics for stabilized cement and un-stabilized soil. Dozens of specimens were prepared at four percentages of cement (i.e. 0%, 2%, 4% and 6%) and five percentages of copper slag (i.e. 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%) by weight of dry soil. The samples compacted into a cylind...
متن کاملUtilisation of aggregate materials in road construction and bulk fill
In the UK, at present, the majority of aggregate materials, for all construction applications, are obtained from primary resources such as crushed rock and sand and gravel. Material extraction results in many adverse environmental impacts and utilisation consumes a finite natural resource. In the UK we also produce large quantities of waste and by-product materials, from industrial and domestic...
متن کاملUse of artificial neural network simulation metamodelling to assess groundwater contamination in a road project
The estimation of the extent of a polluted zone after an accidental spill occurred in road transport is essential to assess the risk of water resources contamination and to design remediation plans. This paper presents a metamodel based on artificial neural networks (ANN) for estimating the depth of the contaminated zone and the volume of pollutant infiltration in the soil in a twolayer soil (a...
