Bajareque. A strong and massive construction is often used in Latin America.
Horizontal bamboo strips, connected together or nailed, covered with mud and stones,
thereby filling the free space (Guadua Bamboo 2017).
The wattle bamboo. Thick panels of bamboo strips are intertwined around the
bearing beam of bamboo. It is commonly used in India, Peru and Chile.
Roof. One of the best roofing methods of using bamboo is one that uses prefabricated bamboo farms, as well as bamboo boards. Farms are usually built in the form
of a triangle, which gives the roof a completely different look than most western
styles of houses. Sometimes bamboo is used with a coating of astringent materials
after the construction is completed. This not only helps protect bamboo fibers, but
also helps to create fireproof structures. Clay tiles can be placed in the upper part of
the roof to prevent moisture penetration. When used as a building material, bamboo
must be processed to prevent it from rotting or infecting insects. Although there
are many different ways of preparing bamboo, the simplest and most effective is to
simply allow it to air dry in an upright position. After the bamboo has been dried,
a combination of chemicals is selected, for example, boric acid and borax for its
processing. The entire process can take several months, but in the end, bamboo can
be used in construction (Whittaker 2010).
The disadvantages of using bamboo for a roofing device. Unlike traditional
wooden roofs, bamboo roofing can be quite expensive compared to other types of
roofs. Bamboo is environmentally friendly and sustainable, but requires care and
money investment. Although roofing bamboo can often be found on roofs in the
traditionally western type of roof, it is mainly used when used with a triangular truss.
If the appearance of the triangular roof does not satisfy you, you can always choose
your own version. Investing in the bamboo roof structure is a big deal. For confidence
in the right choice, consider all the pros and cons associated with the material, its
stability and its durability in your particular area.
Bamboo reinforcement. Researchers from the BRE Centre of the University of
Innovative Building Materials, in collaboration with a team from Coventry University
and the University of Cambridge, are studying the use of bamboo for mass housing
construction. The research team develops an understanding of the properties and
structure of bamboo fibers, in order to reduce its weaknesses, while retaining its
unique mechanical properties (Walker 2014).
The design concept has undergone serious changes, boldly violating the traditional
notions of form. With the help of the computer-aided design system, which carries
out the most complicated computing functions, it became possible to exercise much
more freedom in creating the project. After the constructive solutions of the structures
have overcome the established architectural patterns of the past, the original designs
have undoubtedly found their vivid embodiment in modern buildings of bamboo and
interior spaces of their premises.
At the World Architecture Festival in 2016, scientist Dirk Hebel presented bamboo
fiber as a more solid and cheaper alternative to steel. The team, led by a German
architect from the Zurich Institute of Technology (ETH Zurich), is working on a
composite material based on bamboo fiber with the addition of organic resins, which
