Bamboo can be used as a sustainable alternative to steel reinforcement in concrete structures. It has outstanding tensile properties and after waterproofing treatment, performs comparably to steel reinforcement systems. Bamboo is an economic and easily available option for developing countries. Timber frame structures use hardwood studs nailed to top and bottom rails to transfer loads to foundations. Prefabricated timber sections allow for faster, easier construction. Long-span bamboo skeleton systems replicate required truss forms, giving excellent tensile strength for spanning large distances. Connectors prevent sagging.
