  2. Girard form class - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Girard_form_class

    Girard form class is a form quotient calculated as the ratio of diameter inside bark at the top of the first 16 foot log to the diameter outside bark at breast height ().Its purpose is to estimate board-foot volume of whole trees from measurement of DBH, estimation of the number of logs, and estimation of the taper of the first log, based on the general relationships identified between the ...

  3. Tree measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_measurement

    Tree height is the vertical distance between the base of the tree and the highest sprig at the top of the tree. The base of the tree is measured for both height and girth as being the elevation at which the pith of the tree intersects the ground surface beneath, or "where the acorn sprouted."

  4. Tree volume measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tree_volume_measurement

    To calculate trunk volume, the tree is subdivided into a series of segments with the successive diameters being the bottom and top of each segment and segment length being equal to the difference in height between the lower and upper diameters, or if the trunk is not vertical, the segment length can be calculated using the limb length formula ...

    Not to be confused with Grundflächenzahl (GRZ), which is the Site Coverage Ratio. In India floor space index (FSI) and floor area ratio (FAR) are both used. [7] In the United Kingdom and Hong Kong both plot ratio and site ratio are used. [8] [9] In Singapore the terms plot ratio and gross plot ratio (GPR) are more commonly used.

  7. Angle of repose - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angle_of_repose

    Stop pouring the material when the pile reaches a predetermined height or the base a predetermined width. Rather than attempt to measure the angle of the resulting cone directly, divide the height by half the width of the base of the cone. The inverse tangent of this ratio is the angle of repose.

  8. Drimys winteri - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drimys_winteri

    Drimys winteri. Drimys winteri, also known as Winter's bark, foye [2] and canelo, is a slender species of tree in the family Winteraceae, growing up to 20 m (66 ft) tall. It is native to the Magellanic and Valdivian temperate forests of Chile and Argentina, where it is a dominant tree in the coastal evergreen forests.

  9. Maximum coverage problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_coverage_problem

    The inapproximability results apply to all extensions of the maximum coverage problem since they hold the maximum coverage problem as a special case. The Maximum Coverage Problem can be applied to road traffic situations; one such example is selecting which bus routes in a public transportation network should be installed with pothole detectors ...
