This book was released on 2017-12-03 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of concrete is limited because it has low tensile strength. For this reason, it is reinforced and one of the most popular reinforcement is steel. Steel reinforcement at some point may no longer be available or feasible. In current energy crisis scenario, there exists a need for more economical and readily available substitute reinforcement for concrete. Since production of steel rebar requires huge amount of energy, so the main focus of this research work lies in investigating the use of bamboo as potential reinforcement in concrete beams. Through this book we get the idea whether the strips of bamboo have a potential substitute to steel bars in concrete or not. For carrying out the experiments, different types of tests on bamboo material have conducted to find various properties of the material to be used in the design of bamboo reinforced beams. These properties included water absorption, tensile strength, compressive strength and bond strength. After obtaining all mentioned parameters, the bamboo reinforced concrete beams were designed with same reinforcement ratio but different types of patterns of the bamboo reinforcement strips. A beam for same loading parameters was also designed with steel rebar as its main reinforcement. All these beams after casting were tested to compare their first crack loads, ultimate loads and failure patterns as well as working out whether the bamboo material was displaying comparable resistance to the loads like steel rebar beams. Their load deflection graphs and comparison charts were plotted and all their properties compared and quoted in-terms of their loading failure types, amount of strength improvement among bamboo reinforced beams, their bond stress comparisons and ultimately declaring their suitability or unsuitability as a rebar element in concrete beams.
Download or read book Non Conventional Materials and Technologies written by Khosrow Ghavami and published by Materials Research Forum LLC. This book was released on 2018-11-25 with total page 820 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents new research in the area of biobased “green composites”. Biobased materials involve renewable agricultural and forestry feedstocks, including wood, agricultural waste, grasses and natural plant fibers. These lignocellulosic materials are composed mainly of carbohydrates such as sugar and lignin, cellulose, vegetable oils and proteins. Much research is concerned with renewable materials such as bamboo, vegetable fibers, soil composites and recycled materials such as rice husk ash and sugar cane ash. The general aim here is to use renewable and non-polluting materials in ways that offer a high degree of sustainability and preserve the remaining natural resources for future generations. Keywords: Biobased Materials, Renewable Materials, Non-polluting Materials, Sustainability, Wood, Agricultural Waste, Grasses, Natural Plant Fibers, Lignocellulosic Materials, Carbohydrates, Sugars, Lignin, Cellulose, Vegetable Oils, Proteins, Bamboo, Vegetable Fibers, Soil Composites, Recycled Materials, Rice Husk Ash, Sugar Cane Ash, Fiber-reinforced Concrete, Post-disaster Reconstruction, Guadua Fibers, Prefabricated Bamboo Guadua Panels, Multi-Level Bamboo Structures, Alkaline Activated Cements, Polymer Residues Reinforced with Glass Fiber, Composites Reinforced with Vegetal Fibers, Sisal Fibers, Bamboo Arch Structure, Adobe Reinforced with Wheat Fibers, Fiber Reinforced Microconcrete, Cements with High Coal Waste Contents, Natural Composites, Geopolymer Concretes.

Book excerpt: Bamboo materials are well available in the world. Bamboo has much shorter maturity than trees, thus can be harvested with shorter cycles of plantation. Despite the fact that human society has a long history of using bamboo, there is still a lack of modern and industrialized application of bamboo materials in construction. Promoting the application
Download or read book Mechanical Properties of Bamboo written by Jules J.A. Janssen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book I have collected many reports on the properties of bamboo. Since I started bamboo research in 1974, I have collected many publications on bamboo. However, in contacts with other researchers I became aware of the fact that several of these publications were unknown to them. Consequently their activities in research or in bamboo projects had to start at a lower level than if they had known some of these publications. Therefore, I discussed the need for a book like this with several colleagues, and I decided to start writing. In this book I present data on properties, as published by resear chers. Certainly it is not complete; e.g. the proceedings of the bamboo workshop in Cochin in November 1988 are not included; they arrived just too late to be taken into account. On the other hand, in writing this preface I realize I have forgotten my own thesis. I do apologize to any colleague whose relevant report is not taken into account as well. I like to express my feelings of respect to the board of my faculty: they allowed me to spend so much time on this book, and they gave a considerable financial support for the printing costs.

Book excerpt: 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 diversified considerably, so that today, even structures with large spans – such as bridges – are built with this material. Renowned universities such as the ETH Zurich or the SUTD in Singapore have conducted research on engineered bamboo which will further expand its use. The third edition of this manual provides a systematic overview of the applications and processing methods of this renewable material. Recent inspiring bamboo buildings have been added.
