Sažetak
The timber skidding in the mountainous conditions of the Republic of Croatia is done on the ground by skidders which cannot enter the forest unless there is a network of secondary forest roads. Due to rough terrain conditions, a secondary forest road most frequently has to be constructed (a strip road). In this paper we have researched negative consequences of constructing the secondary forest roads in uneven-aged forests of the Republic of Croatia with the particular emphasis on damaging the remaining standing trees in a forest stand. A strip road was made by an excavator Caterpillar 325 equipped with a pick-up hammer. The paper analyses in details damages of the stripped bark according to their shape, dimensions and a place of damage, with the research on the mutual dependence of the frequency and damage intensity on: the distance of damaged trees from the strip road, transverse inclination of the terrain and the building category of the material.
