Abstract
Bamboo hardness test standards are not available. The study aimed to develop a new method of testing bamboo indentation hardness. With the V-shaped prismatic head, bamboo rings with different lengths were tested. The V-shaped indentation coefficient (IC) was defined. The results showed that the IC had a good correlation with compression strength. The V-shaped IC increased with the increase in the longitudinal height of the bamboo pole, and the variance analysis showed significant differences in different axial directions of the same bamboo ring. In addition, the correlation between density and IC is good. The V-shaped IC can be applied in bamboo gra
