Fuel consumption in timber haulage
Original language description
The paper presents an assessment of road timber transport by trucks, which included 132 truck-and-trailer units - three types of trucks (Tatra, Mercedes Benz and Iveco) with a selection of trailers in the Czech Republic. The main aim of this work was toestablish the effect of hauling distance in the individual types of timber-transport units on the consumption of fuels per 100 km and on the specific fuel consumption per one transported cubic metre of timber. Any decrease of fuel consumption per unit ofproduction can enhance environmental profile of secondary transport. Freight transport recorded conspicuous changes in the last ten years, and the analysis presented in this work provides important information useful in the planning and organization ofroad timber transport. Obsolete and inadequate truck-and-trailer units were continuously replaced with new units during the study period from which a considerable reduction in fuel consumption per unit of production can be observed(0.5 l.
