Overcoming challenges in bamboo connections: A review of mechanical properties and structural considerations
Over the past decades, bamboo has increasingly gained attention as a sustainable construction material, through its rapid growth, naturally optimized shape, high mechanical properties, and significant environmental benefits. However, despite these advantages, the use of bamboo in its natural form for structural applications remains limited, partly due to insufficient knowledge of connection behavior, which is crucial for ensuring the long-term reliability and performance of bamboo structures.
