What is Green Log Weight?

The Green Log Weight (GLW) refers to the weight of a log that is still fresh and contains a high moisture content. This weight can be calculated using the log's radius and length. Accurate calculation of the green log weight is crucial for various applications in forestry and logging industries.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Calculate the Green Log Weight:

GLW=π×(1.5)2×20×85

Step 1: Calculate the area of the base:

π×(1.5)2=π×2.257.07 square feet

Step 2: Calculate the volume of the log:

7.07×20=141.4 cubic feet

Step 3: Calculate the Green Log Weight:

141.4×8512019 lbs

Therefore, the Green Log Weight is approximately 12019 lbs.
