註釋
The objective of the study described was to provide the western forest products industry with long-term direction for the development of safer, more productive log truck configurations. The study was limited to long log-hauling configurations appropriate to the British Columbia and Alberta forest industry. An industry survey indicated future trends and gathered information on typical loads and truck configurations used. A series of dynamic tests was conducted on representative configurations to measure performance characteristics under controlled conditions on a test track. A computer model was developed and validated which could evaluate the dynamic performance of these configurations. The model was applied to evaluate and rank the dynamic performance under both British Columbia and Alberta truck weight and dimension regulations. The model was also applied to explore modifications that would improve the dynamic performance of marginal configurations.
