Abstract
The use of trucks in log hauling has many advantages, however tire slip can pose serious problem. Tire slip is not only
loss in term of log production efficiency, but also damaging the soil road surfaces. Tire chain is one of alternative method to
avoid tire slip. This paper studies to find out the slip and the effect of the use of tire chain into the soil damage. The results
showed that the use of tire chain was able to reduce the average of tire slip by 95.98%. The average tire slip in normal tire
was 24.85% in the 82.82% moisture content, while the slip in chain added tire was 12.68% in the 84.63% moisture
content. The use of tire chain can reduce slip and the depth of tire tracks significantly
