    Learning

    ObjectiveAction: Calculate Timber-cutting Charges

    Conditions: In a classroom, given a hand held calculator, information neededto calculate charges with a formula and FM 5-250.

    Standard: Calculate all timber-cutting charges without error, using the six-step problem solving format, and the timber-cutting formulas, inaccordance with FM 5-250.

    1. Lesson Summary

    a. Safety : Will be integrated, observed, and evaluated at all times.

    b. Environmental : No major environmental impact.

    c. Risk : Low

    2. General Instructions:

    a. Conduct the following student reading / familiarization will be completed prior toclassroom instruction: FM 5-250, pg 3-1 through 3-10, and pg 3-33.

    b. Participate in practical exercises.(see attached PE sheet).

    3. Sequence of Activities:

    a. Familiarization of demolitions/timber-cutting.

    b. Six-step problem solving format.

    Lesson Title: Calculate Timber-Cutting Charges

    1. You are to cut 26 trees, each with a diameter of 42 inches. M112 (C-4) blocks will be used and thecharges will be placed externally and untamped. How many blocks of explosives will be required tocomplete the mission?

    2. You are to cut 15 trees, each with a diameter of 38 inches. Dynamite will be used and the chargesplaced internally and tamped. How many 1/2-lb. sticks of dynamite will be required to complete themission?

    3. You are to create an abatis with 135 trees. The trees have a diameter of 29 inches. The placement ofthe charges will be external and untamped. M112 (C-4) will be utilized. How many packages ofexplosives will be required to complete the mission?

    4. You are to remove 42 live stumps, each having a diameter of 22 inches. How many 1/2-1b packagesof dynamite will be required to complete the mission?

    5. You are to cut 9 trees each having a diameter of 27 inches. Using a ring charge of M112 (C-4) blocks,how many packages of explosives will be required to complete the mission?
