Lumber, a crucial natural resource, has been essential to human civilization for thousands of years, with diverse uses from home construction to tool-making. One of its significant but often overlooked roles is in the railroad industry. #NaturalResources #SustainableForestry https://lnkd.in/gpuRZtRV

Revegetation is an important part of mine land reclamation projects. When native plants take root on old mine sites they prevent soil from washing away, stabilizing slopes, and providing cover and forage for animals. This photo shows revegetation taking place at the old CF&I quarry near Monarch Pass. After a site is graded, appropriate soil mixtures can be applied, along with grass seeds (and sometimes planted seedlings), with straw mulch often covering the ground to help prevent erosion and retain moisture as the plants get started growing.

Land clearing operations require the right equipment. To clear dense vegetation without damaging the trees on your wooded lot, for instance, we might use special shearing attachments or mulchers mounted on compact, maneuverable excavators.

Soil compaction occurs when soil particles are squeezed together, typically due to heavy equipment or constant foot traffic. This results in reduced macropore and micropore space which can have harmful effects on a tree's health such as poor gas exchange and a reduced water infiltration rate. Learn more about soil compaction as well as how to minimize the risk of soil compaction or regain healthy soil composition in our latest Arbor Ed article written by our Environmental Division Senior Division Supervisor Cody Gray! #education #construction #heavyequipment #arborist #treework #trees https://lnkd.in/gsx679di

Geogrids, wildfires and forest roads.   At a global scale, 2023 was marked by unprecedented wildfires in many regions of the world, notably in Canada where the estimated burnt area amounted to over 18 million ha (roughly twice the size of Portugal). When looking from our local perspective, in 2023, an area around twice the size of Luxembourg was burnt in the EU, amounting to more than half a million (504,002) ha.   Ensuring quick access to the most distant locations is of particular importance in the face of a very high #firerisk and the prevailing #drought.   The use of #geogrids with stiff, integral nodes in forest road surface structures has many benefits. It allows to reduce the scope of soil replacement by up to 40%, without compromising the load-bearing capacity of the surface and extends the service life of the structure several times.   Thanks to their high stiffness, #geogrids are resistant to assembly damage during compaction of the road material. This translates into a significant reduction in costs and duration of the investment.   We share photos from the latest project completed in Suth Western Poland: https://lnkd.in/d9biJswc   #geosynthetics #reinforcement #roadconstruction

When selecting the right plant for the right place, it’s all about understanding how the plant’s needs align with the environment where it will grow. For instance, in one of our property spaces, Pachysandra was the perfect choice because it thrives in shady areas and helps stabilize the soil, providing excellent erosion control. This made it ideal for those tricky, hard-to-manage spots where other plants might struggle. Just like we did with that project, when choosing the right plant, it's important to consider the unique conditions of the space. The goal is to select a plant that not only looks great but also serves a practical purpose in its environment. 📞 919-390-1494 🖥️ info@groundsmithlandscape.com #Landscapenc #Raleighnc #Wakeforestnc #Carync #Durhamnc

3 MAJOR BENEFITS OF HYDROSEEDING 👇 1. Rapid application of seed over large areas. 2. This mulch helps protect soil from erosion. 3. This hydroseeder is mounted on a crawler that has extremely low-ground pressure -- you can travel across difficult or muddy terrain with ease while getting the job done! #heavyequipment #heavyequipmentlife #heavyequipmentoperator #newequipment #coolequipment #equipmentrental #hydroseeding #hydroseeder #landrestoration #pipeline #pipeliner
