A Review of Codes and Standards for Bamboo Structural Design
Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021 Bamboo is a strong, fast‐growing, and sustainable material. In modern times, it can be an aesthetically pleasing and low‐cost alternative to more conventional materials. Despite the literature’s consideration of bamboo’s promising potential as a resilient, sustainable building material for structural element design, its application is limited.

Fast pyrolysis of Guadua angustifolia-Kunth
Energy Procedia, 2017 Abstract In this work, the condensable gases of the bio-oil produced from its fast pyrolysis at 500 oC for 30 s has been analyzed by Py-GC/MS. Relatively high yields of acetic acid, phenolics and levoglucosan have been found. Levoglucosan can be used as a source for synthesizing bio-fuels and both, phenolics and levoglucosan in the production of ...
