Abstract

The Following design report is a theoretical démonstration of the comprehensive use of bamboo as a buttressing material in concrete construction and its expansive use in the negotiation with sword as underpinning in concrete cargo bearing members. The report has been deduced with the help of conclusions and results of the former reports of colourful conducted trials for determining the mechanical parcels of bamboo and its use as a material in construction. The construction principles involved in the designing of bamboo corroborated members and structures has been bandied in this document, the use of bamboo in the place of sword as a whole as well as with sword is shown to insure the reduction in weight, profitable advantages with its strength compromised to a slight and safe position. colorful inquiries and study results will be used for the deduction of a system most suitable for the relief of bamboo as buttressing material in the right quantum and the right proportion and the stylish possible placement in place of sword and or with sword. A system that would not compromise with the factor of safety of the structure has to be shown in the report.
