Green log weight chart

[DavidT]

Does anyone know where I can get a green log weight chart to print? I tried to downloan the chart from sherrilltree but it is not available anymore.

If you spend some time with Google, I'm sure you'll find a better one.

Thanks, that was what I was looking for. Going to print and laminate it and stick it on my crane and bucket truck.

watch out, NeTree has a very offensive phrase for bucket operators...

The chart is still available on our site, on this page:

Here is the direct link to the chart:

Does anyone know of a chart that includes more pacific northwest species? The only thing I can find on the net are calculators rather than charts.

You can also find a green logs weight chart on page 46 and 47 of the ANSI Z133.1-2006. Unfortunatly it only goes up to 24". A change should be made to this and have the chart go up to at least 36" if not 48".

Here's Mahk Adams' chart from the thread in the Crane Use forum.

Thanks mp--I wasn't aware of this thread until I saw your recent post.

Ragarding the chart:

It is in Excel.

It combines all of the species (65 total) from the weight charts in the Z 133.1 2006, Blair (Arborist Equipment), and the Sherrill catalogue. It also lists weights for each of these species for 10 - 80 inches in diameter (the other sources go up to 24, 36, and 36 inches respectively).

There are three worksheets (see bottom left of the attachment in mpriley02's post, above). Each worksheet has all of the species, but the first worksheet has weights for 10 - 80 inches, even inches only, and prints on three pages. The next has weights for 18 - 72 inches, even inches only, and prints on two pages. The last one has weights for 14-36 inches, even inches only, and 37 - 72 inches, odd and even inches, prints on four pages.
