Abstract

This report deals with fabrication, analysis, and testing of a Space truss roof using bamboo, also some properties of bamboo. The diminishing wood resources and restrictions imposed on felling in natural forests, particularly in the tropics, have focused world attention on the need to identify a substitute building material that should be renewable, environmentally friendly and widely available. In view of its rapid growth, a ready adaptability to most climatic conditions and properties, bamboo emerges as a very suitable alternative. In this work Analysis, Fabrication and Testing of 2 panel Space Truss roof has been performed on bamboo elements with various joints. Various techniques of joining bamboo were used in the making of the truss namely ‘Bevel Cut Bolted Joint’, ‘Fish Mouth Bolted Joint’. Compression, Tension, Flexural tests were performed on the truss. Bamboo, as a fast-growing renewable with a simple production process, is expected to be a suitable alternative for more traditional materials like concrete, steel, and timber.
