Development of load tables for design of full-culm bamboo

Design aids in the form of load tables or span are well known to engineers and commonly used timber steel design. Such reduce need for repetitive calculation allow easy ‘what-if’ queries during They also permit rapid communication minimum design requirements. This paper demonstrates an approach developing full culm bamboo elements compression flexure. The based on provisions ISO 22156:2021 most easily developed upon established grading procedure as described by 19624:2018. Prior synthesis these two standards, generation such was not practical. development archetypal column axial beam flexural is demonstrated. Examples their use illustrated demonstrating how alternate designs compared. appropriate bespoke in-house aides “national annexes” appended its adoption a jurisdiction.
