"Bamboo is in the spotlight as a potential building material in the current pursuit of a CO2-neutral society, due to its rapid maturation and excellent mechanical properties. Despite the growing interest in bamboo in academia and society, there is a lack of systematic understanding of the fabrication, design and construction using bamboo as a modern industrial material. This is the first book to describe a new category of structural systems constructed with engineered bamboo. It gives the definition of engineered bamboo (GluBam), in an analogy with steel structure and wood structure. Structural systems and components have been designed using glubam. Then industrialized production processes of glubam are given. Based on the state-of-the-art research, design guidelines are first developed, in a comparable and parallel approach to the existing composite wood structures. The book also shows bamboo structures in the context of sustainable development, including the benefits of using bamboo as an alternative or replacement for wood, for developing countries, many of which are faced with the lack or destruction of forest resources. Yan Xiao is a distinguished Professor of Civil Engineering and Director of Energy, Environment and Sustainable Systems Sciences Department at the Zhejiang University, University of Illinois Joint Institute (ZJUI), and Professor at the Sonny Astani Department of Civil Engineering, University of Southern California. His recent research and industrial development efforts focus on modern bamboo structures with the goal of promoting carbon neutrality and sustainability. He has many patents to his name, forming the basis of the award-winning technology GluBam (Glued Laminated Bamboo)".

"This volume uncovers contemporary architecture and design's resurgent love affair with bamboo. Light, stiff, strong and incredibly fast growing, bamboo is a true super-plant, and in construction it is becoming a super-material. A comprehensive introuduction explores all aspects that architects working with bamboo will need to consider. CASE STUDIES: Bamboo has traditionally been used in many cultures around the world, and its influence is spreading. Collected here are some of the most beautiful, creative and cutting edge bamboo projects of recent years, accompanied by photos, plans and inspirations"--Provided by publisher.

This highly illustrated text brings together two areas which have both grown in popularity in recent years: gridshells and bamboo. Bamboo is a fast-growing, naturally available, renewable resource which is quite strong and lends itself to structural applications. In this unique text, David Rockwood demonstrates the viability of bamboo as a building material and considers the advantages - as well as the challenges - of working with bamboo. Its properties, workability, connections, assembly, erection processes, structural behavior, and final use are explored in detail through a series of design-build experiments and case studies from Hawai'i and Vietnam.

This book offers a comprehensive overview of the use of bamboo in building industry. It systematically demonstrates bamboo’s utility in terms of its properties, describing the material properties of typical industrial bamboo products, and discussing their performance evaluation and optimization as building components and in the creation of building envelopes. The book also includes examples of the high-value utilization of bamboo forest resources. Further, it examines how building performance may be affected by conditions such as climate. Including insights from material science, construction design, building physics and building climatology, the book also provides data obtained from technology and market status investigation, laboratory test and the computer simulation. This book appeals to scientists and professionals, as it introduces and tests various bamboo products, demonstrating the advantages and disadvantages for each one. The book is also a valuable resource for civil engineers and students interested in this unique plant material and its application in the building industry.

Although traditionally a building material of the warmer climate zones, bamboo is becoming increasingly popular amongst architects in the northern hemisphere; bamboo has several advantages - it is very stable, of low weight, and highly elastic, in addition to being readily available as well as renewable. The applications of bamboo in architecture have become significantly wider and diversified, so that today, even structures with large spans - such as bridges - are built with this material. The new and revised second edition of this manual provides a practical, systematic overview of the numerous potential applications and processing methods of this renewable material. The comprehensive presentation of groundbreaking bamboo buildings has been updated with more recent projects. Ein traditionelles Baumaterial der warmen Klimazonen Asiens und Lateinamerikas, erfreut sich Bambus eines wachsenden Interesses unter Architekten der nördlichen Hemisphäre: Bambus hat nicht nur ein geringes Gewicht bei großer Stabilität und ist ausgesprochen elastisch, sondern zeichnet sich auch durch Eigenschaften aus, die in Zeiten schwindender Ressourcen besonders gefragt sind: das Material ist reichlich verfügbar und zudem erneuerbar. Die Anwendungsbereiche von Bambus in der Architektur haben sich erheblich erweitert und diversifiziert, so dass heute sogar weitgespannte Konstruktionen wie Brücken daraus gebaut werden. Von diesen technischen und ästhetischen Möglichkeiten beeindruckt, nutzen auch Architekten in Europa, Nordamerika und Japan Bambus für vielfältige Bauaufgaben. In den letzten Jahren sind unter anderem private Wohnhäuser und Ausstellungspavillons aus Bambus entstanden, Überdachungen und sogar Schul- und Museumsgebäude. Die neue und überarbeitete 2. Auflage dieses Handbuchs bietet einen praxisorientierten systematischen Überblick über die zahlreichen Einsatzmöglichkeiten und Verarbeitungstechniken dieses nachwachsenden Materials. Die umfangreiche Präsentation von Bambusbauten wurde durch neuere Projekte aktualisiert.
