Abstract

Bamboo, a rapidly renewable resource with exceptional structural properties, presents a promising alternative to conventional building materials for a more sustainable construction industry. This review paper explores the potential of bamboo, examining its advantages and addressing the key challenges hindering its widespread adoption. This paper discusses the variability in natural bamboo's performance and the need for engineered bamboo products to ensure consistent quality and reliability. Furthermore, it analyzes the importance of standardized manufacturing processes, rigorous quality control measures, and robust regulatory frameworks to build confidence and facilitate broader acceptance within the construction sector. Finally, we emphasize the crucial role of collaboration among researchers, policymakers, and industry stakeholders in driving innovation, knowledge transfer, and the seamless integration of bamboo into mainstream construction practices. This collaborative approach is essential to unlock bamboo's full potential and pave the way for a more sustainable and resilient built environment.
