A solution procedure for calculating the standing skyline load path for partial and full suspension

Many harvesting operations use a standing skyline cable system in steep topography or on fragile soils. We present an efficient algorithm for calculating the load path for a standing skyline suitable for analyzing situations where the logs are either fully suspended above the ground or have one end suspended above the ground.
