Abstract

Experimental Study on the use of Bamboo as Structural Reinforcements in RCC Structures - written by Pushpanjali Verma , Vipin Mahadeven published on 2020/07/13 download full article with reference data and citations

Highlights

  • In recent year, many researchers around the world have already begun to explore the use of low cost and low energy substitute construction materials. [1]Among the many possibilities for such substitutions Bamboo, which is one of the fastest growing plants, has great potential. [2] [4]Bamboo has been used in construction of bridges and houses for thousands of years in Asia

  • We have focused on to identify water absorption in bamboo during curing period and flexure strength of bamboo reinforce beam, cracking pattern and other experimental value to step more towards bamboo as alternative to steel

  • Several tests were conducted to calculate different strength properties which are necessary to find such as compressive strength test, tensile strength test and water absorption test of bamboo specimen in laboratory

INTRODUCTION

Many researchers around the world have already begun to explore the use of low cost and low energy substitute construction materials. [1]. Many researchers around the world have already begun to explore the use of low cost and low energy substitute construction materials. Among the many possibilities for such substitutions Bamboo, which is one of the fastest growing plants, has great potential. Bamboo has been used in construction of bridges and houses for thousands of years in Asia. Bamboo takes less energy to harvest and transport. Bamboo is hygroscopic material thats why it absorbs moisture from surrounding determination of properties, improve over moisture absorption and bamboo reinforcement in concrete beam has been investigated by the authors in the lab and results are presented.
