Abstract

Bamboo resources are abundant in China, and low-tech bamboo structures are used to maximize the sustainable development of new rural construction. This paper will deeply explore, study and analyze the issue of low-tech bamboo construction, then further analyze its applicability in new rural construction, and ultimately find a feasible plan about bamboo construction, so as to take effective measures to combine new rural construction and green science and technology.

Highlights

  • Development and application status of foreign bamboo processing techniqueCompared with the current status of the domestic use of bamboo materials, some foreign architects' design works appear to be more in-depth and innovative

  • Compared with the current status of the domestic use of bamboo materials, some foreign architects' design works appear to be more in-depth and innovative. They have designed high-quality works by continuously exploring the material properties and construction logic of bamboo materials so that people have an avant-garde awareness of bamboo construction, which plays a more important role in the promotion of the use of bamboo materials [1]

  • Famous designers from different countries of the world are invited to the International Bamboo Architecture Biennial Exhibition to participate in the construction of the architecture in the way of writing propositions

Summary

Development and application status of foreign bamboo processing technique

The application of domestic bamboo construction technique is relatively narrow and the development of bamboo construction is slow. Professor Xiao Yan from Hunan University has conducted an in-depth study of the material characteristics and mechanical properties of bamboo from the perspective of structural engineers. In December 2007, the world’s first fully bamboo-structured bridge with access to vehicles was completed and opened to traffic in Leiyang, Hunan Province. The team led by Professor Xiao Yan, has designed and made a number of bamboo-structured residential buildings with earthquake-resistance capacity up to level 8, which has set a precedent for the Chinese architectural field. The theories and practices of bamboo construction have been increasingly valued in the field of architecture in China, the overall level of development is still relatively backward. In 2004, the International Bamboo and Rattan Center cooperated with the China’s Academy of Forestry to design and build Pingbian Primary School in Yunnan Province made of bamboo materials. Bamboo's outstanding structural performance, prominent low-carbon environmental characteristics, and perceived properties in color, arts, texture, and so on attract modern people to build by it
