Okay, I agree that bamboo have an unusual tensile strength. But how well can one vouch for the lifespan or longevity of the bamboo. Iron Rod as we know it can remain existing inside a concrete for well over 70 years. Can a bamboo stand the test of time inside a solidified concrete? 3 Likes |

Very Commendable. The Igbo man is a natural out-of-the-box thinker and doer. This is an opportunity yet to be explored. Afterall, the whole island of Venice sits on a foundation made from a log of oak trees and has been so for hundreds of years. Yes Venice Italy. 1 Like |

Bamboo can be used as an independent structural material and concrete reinforcement in the forms of bamboo culms, bamboo splints, and bamboo composite bars for low-rise and low-cost buildings. Bamboo proves to provide good reinforcement as it holds very good tension and compressive strength. The flexural strength of the beam having bamboo reinforcement shows greater strength which helps to improve the usage of bamboo 6 Likes |

shogotermies: Many don't know how strong bamboo is. The building should be appraised by the appropriate authorities to ensure safety...HSE is key. If you look at the casting, he used way more bamboos than he would have used if it was steel...I guess that compensates.but one can't be too careful. People fear what they do not understand. 8 Likes |

Just googled to cure my ignorance: Can bamboo be used to reinforce concrete? "As an alternative to overcome this problem, bamboo material has been used as a replacement of reinforcement in concrete. Bamboo is a suitable material because it is a natural material, cheap and also available material." BUT BUT WAIT-O...if the fear is possible collapse, what then say ye to millions of collapsed structures despite the iron rods? Other factors abi? Anyway, I just reported the outcome of my enquiry about bamboo concrete reinforcement.... 6 Likes |

Damian077:bamboo is not stronger than iron or steel, stop this miss information. it only has a better strength to weight ratio, hence it is stronger per unit weight. 7 Likes 1 Share |

This isn't new, even though the tensile strength of bamboos cannot be compared to that of iron steels and are prone to insects attack and melting on contact with water in the long run. Some of the not-too-tall buildings in places like India, China, USA, etc., are built with bamboos in place of iron steels. 7 Likes |

KosiGee: Try the follow research papers, Yes the tensile strength of Bamboo is higher than Iron rod... It's just not a popular construction material In this part of the World. What you should be concern about is the design cc, the design of such will definitely won't be using the same parameters as iron rod 1 Like |

Jewessgratitud3: The wood you were talking about is treated wood that cannot decay. In the olden days, our forefathers used to use just wood instead of concrete. Using bamboo and concrete is out of it because the weight of the concrete will be too much for the bamboo. You are right that the Americans used wood to deck their houses, but not concrete on top of wood. 5 Likes 1 Share |
