19 COST CALCULATION [Rohrmoser, 2005] THOMAS STEINMÜLLER 37 CHALLENGES PLANNING PROCEDURE Neighborhood relations Requirements of authorities: Detailed variant planning Digital terrain models Visibility studies, THOMAS STEINMÜLLER 38 19

20 CHALLENGES NATURE PROTECTION (1) Evaluation of interference (natural environment): - Special fields - Intensity - Relevance - Legal requirements Compensation: - Searching for areas - Assessment - Coordination Conceptual design: - Rough concept - Cost estimation - Coordination Project development: - Detailed planning THOMAS STEINMÜLLER 39 CHALLENGES NATURE PROTECTION (2) Interference Compensation THOMAS STEINMÜLLER 40 20

21 CHALLENGES NATURE PROTECTION (3) Ecological Construction Supervision (ECS): Authorities are attaching conditions to the approvals (e.g. Nature protection law) ECS is responsible for the environmental compliance and documentation Different concerns between landowners, neighbors, construction companies and authorities, THOMAS STEINMÜLLER 41 CHALLENGES WATER PROTECTION Increasing requirements of authorities: Technical crossing of torrents and water bodies Dimensioning of bridges, fords and culverts Restrictions in water protection areas Analysis of watersheds, THOMAS STEINMÜLLER 42 21

22 CHALLENGES CONSTRUCTION TERRAIN (1) Traditional slope supporting systems: Ripraps Wooden Crib Walls, THOMAS STEINMÜLLER 43 CHALLENGES CONSTRUCTION TERRAIN (2) New slope supporting systems: Reinforced earth High-performance grid, THOMAS STEINMÜLLER 44 22

23 CONCLUSIONS Increasing requirements of authorities increasing standards of planning Complexity of approvals continuing coordination (landowners, neighbors, authorities, partners, ) Nature and water protection as basic condition Forest road projects <-> project management Comprehensive expertise of forest engineers and a strong network of partners is essential: geologists, ecologists, water engineers, Utilization of new slope supporting systems Expertise of construction company as success factor Forest road network planning and construction is a never ending learning process THOMAS STEINMÜLLER 45 THANK YOU!
