Forest Workers and Steep Terrain Winching: the Impact of Environmental and Anthropometric Parameters on Performance
Winching is common in small-scale forest operations, especially on steep slopes, where tractors cannot reach the logs inside the forest. In this case, logs are dragged to the roadside with tractor-mounted winches, for later collection by transportation units. Winching is a heavy task, posing a high...
