• Some species of bamboo grow so fast you can almost see them growing.

• They are capable of growing 60 cm or more per day.

• However, the growth rate is dependent on local soil and climatic conditions.

ADVANTAGES…

Bamboo is an extremely strong natural fibre.

It is highly flexible.

Low-cost and environment friendly.

Light weight compared to steel.

Shock absorbing and thus earthquake resistant.

Bamboo can prevent pollution by absorbing large amounts

of nitrogen from waste water.

And also reducing the amount of carbon dioxide in the air.

• The friction provided by the construction-grade bamboo increases its load-bearing capacity.

• Treated split bamboo piles 8m long and 80 to 90mm in diameter were filled with coconut coir strands wrapped with jute.
