Characteristics of Bamboo BAMBOO
Strength In terms of its structural properties, bamboo is an extremely strong fiber, with twice the compressive strength of concrete and roughly the same strength-to-weight ratio of steel in tension, which allows it to handle long spans. Tests have also shown that the hollow tube shape gives a strength factor of 1.9 over the equivalent solid section. The reason for this is that, in a beam, the only fibers doing the work are in the top (compression) and bottom (tension), while the center is dead weight. The strongest bamboo fibers have a greater stress strength than structural woods, and they take much longer to come to ultimate failure (DeBoer, 2008).
Flexible Sustainability bamboo easily surpasses the most demanding criteria for continuous use. It is a renewable natural resource that can be plentiful, local and waste-reducing. Alternative material that is cheap and easy to get Since bamboo concentrates a large amount of fiber in a small land area, it can create the rare situation in which a single person is both producer and consumer of a building material. Thus a bamboo builder need not depend upon the whims of the marketplace and can create a long-term source of material. Reduce waste Reduce GHG Yet even more revealing are the statistics for pulling carbon out of the air, potentially reducing the amount of carbon dioxide that contributes to the greenhouse effect. According to the Zero Emissions Research and Initiatives (ZERI), a bamboo forest can sequester 17 times as much carbon as a typical tree forest (ZERI, 2008). Aesthetics Identity/Culture
