Book excerpt: Excerpt from Analysis of Running Skyline With Drag For several years, logging engineers involved in developing har vesting plans for the running skyline have been using computational methods to determine the load - carrying capability of these systems. The methods available for these computa tions have been either hand procedures or digital computer solutions for the specific configurations of a log load suspended free of the ground or in frictionless contact with level ground. The more typical operation, however, drags one end of the log load along the ground. The dragging con figuration, considered in this paper, can influence the load - carrying capability of a running skyline significantly. The dragging log problem was posed mathematically as a requirement to determine the deflection of a loaded skyline when the anchoring geometry.
