Bamboo Connection Technology for Lightweight Structures

open access: yesConstruction Technologies and Architecture, 2022
Bamboo construction is often related to traditional and vernacular architecture, which is found mostly in rural areas, where, for the construction, local people apply diverse techniques learned in an empirical way and passed on from generation to generation.
