  We use the theory of YFS resummation to compute the size of the expected
resummed soft radiative threshold effects in precision studies of heavy
particle production at the LHC, where accuracies of 1 percent are desired in
some processes. We find that the soft QED threshold effects are at the level of
0.3 percent whereas the soft QCD threshold effects enter at the level of 20
percent and hence both must be controlled to be on the conservative side to
achieve such goals.
