Abstract

Steel and concrete are the most used materials in the world, with approximately more than three tones concrete used per annum individually. Concrete is consumed around the world twice than the entirety of all other construction materials, including aluminum, steel, wood and plastic. However, the material is used so widely that world cement production contributes 5 % of annual global CO2 production. In the attention in response to sustainable society and global warming issues, manufacturing using natural materials has become actively. Low cost, fast growing, and broad distribution of growth of Bamboo, is expected to contribute significantly to earthquake-resistant structures and seismic retrofit technology in the developing countries. This paper presents the construction of bamboo-crete slab with the help of wire mesh and plane cement concrete. These studies led to establishment of bamboo's composite behaviour through the rule of mix.
