Abstract
The iron and steel industry is one of the largest energy-consuming and carbon-emitting sectors worldwide, contributing significantly to global CO₂ emissions. In response to growing environmental concerns, the construction industry is exploring sustainable alternatives to steel reinforcement. Bamboo, a fast-growing and renewable non-timber forest material, offers high strength, low weight, and excellent ecological benefits, including substantial carbon and nitrogen absorption during growth. Traditionally used in rural construction, bamboo has recently gained attention as a potential reinforcement material in concrete due to its favorable mechanical properties and suitability for light structural loads, especially in seismic regions. This study examines the feasibility of bamboo reinforcement by conducting tensile tests and developing slab and beam models using ANSYS software for comparative analysis with steel. The findings contribute to understanding bamboo’s structural performance and highlight its potential as an eco-friendly, cost-effective reinforcement material in reinforced concrete applications.
