Abstract
This paper presents a newly assembled dataset tailored for the analysis of mechanical and physical properties of four species of bamboo, Bambusa vulgaris Schrad. ex J.C.Wendl., Melocanna baccifera (Roxb.) Kurz, Bambusa cacharensis R.B.Majumdar and Thyrsostachys oliveri Gamble. Bamboo has huge potential as a sustainable building material, and compressive strength is a key mechanical property. Data on bamboo compressive strength (BCS) along with moisture content (MC) and density (ρ) were acquired through tests conducted in accordance with the IS 6874:2008 protocol. Each bamboo culm was cut down in a manner where the length of the bamboo specimen equaled its outer diameter. The mechanical and physical characteristics of the four bamboo species were compared to analogous species documented in the literature. These data provide insights into the utilization of naturally occurring structural materials harvested in Arunachal Pradesh (India), offering potential applications across various engineering disciplines, notably in the realm of sustainable construction.
