Research Improves Fire Fighting
Techniques In Georgia’s Forests
A farmer knocked his pi
ashes off on his boot as g:
walked back from his fields.
At home he looked out the
window and saw a fire moving
across his field.
This is how easily a raging
fire can be started, says
ranger J. L. Stanford of Lf;e
Georgia Forestry Commis
sion,
From January to May of
this year Georgia forests suf
feredy 12,438 fires compared to
a 1980 total of 10,382, and the
worst seasons, fall and winter,
are not here yet.
The increase, according to
Stanford, is due to excessively
dry conditions.
One of the most effective
ways to control fires is b
plowing firebreaks — yar({
wide swaths of soil which
serve to stop advancement of
the fire's destruction.
Fireplows, pulled by
bulldozers, are used to bury
the three-foot-wide strip of
combustible organic matter,
leaving a band of soil.
The hitch in the system
has been the frequent f};ilure

of the fireplows. Because the
fire'plowa cover rugged terrain
at four to five miles per hour,
the disk spindle often bends or
breaks, leaving no recourse
but to remove t:she fireplow for
repairs, Stanford explains.
“Valuable time 1s wasted
locating another plow."” And
maintenance costs have been
as high for the fireplow as for
the bulldozer.
This is the kind of problem
which can be solved by im
proved design, an(g' a%
engineers at the University o
Georgia College of
Agriculture have developed it.
Field tests by the eerri
ment station researchers
showed that the spindle was
receiving up to 80,000 pounds
of pressure per square inch
(psi) when plowin%). and up to
140,000 an when ackin% uE.
The bending point of the
spindle was determined to be
60,000 psi and the breaking
oint was 90,000, according to
f)r. Rex L. Clark, associate
professor of agricultural
engineering, and Harold B.
Lowery, a graduate assistant.

To eliminate the problem,
Clark and Lowery proposed a
new spindle \:{xich should
reduce the stress on the con
necting fillet to 40,000 psi
even under the most adverse
conditions,
Since the Georgia Forestry
Commission may buy some
parts, but essentially builds
its own fireplows, adapting
the new design woulg be
relatively simple, Lowery
said.
The study, sponsored by
the Forestry gommission,
also indicated two other pro
blem areas on the Seico 450
fireplow, and seven problem
areas on the Rome 350 plow
which is used mostly in North
Georgia.
“That's one down, and
nine to go,”" Lowery notes.
Improvements such as
these will make a significant
contribution in more effective
control of fires, Ranger Stan
ford says. Fireplowing is not
restricted to raging fires, he
adds.
‘‘Preventive fireplowing,

suppression plowing, is used
to trench fire-prone areas such
as railroad begs or road beds."”
Many people do not realize the
sensitivity of forests during
dry spells, according to Stan
ford.
Many times brush fires
start from sparks as trains
brake hard for curves or as
bearings wear out. When the
wind is 10 to 15 mph and the
humidity is around 20 per
cent, ‘we can count on a fire
around a railroad bed,” he
says.
And, as Smokey the Bear
used to say, cigarette butts
and matches are also very
dangerous. With proper care
by citizens and with improved
fire fighting systems, annual
losses due to fire can be
minimized, Stanford says.

IT'S MEDICINE
When you give your child
medicine, make sure he knows
it's medicine. This is especial
ly important if the medicine is
flavored. Don't coax the child
to take it because ‘‘it tastes
like candy.”
