    Abstract:

    Moso bamboo, a kind of rich forest resource in China, was selected as the building material and tested.The physical and mechanical properties have been tested, and the results show that the main mechanical properties of bamboo pole are better than those of TC13 grade of coniferous wood.So Moso bamboo poles can be used as a structural material.Several types of metal connections were presented to connect bamboo poles with other materials, and the processing standardization has been almost fulfilled by utilizing the metal connections.Two pieces of shear walls made of bamboo poles were conducted through lateral resistance tests.The lateral resistance capacity of this kind of shear wall is about 65%, compared with the same wall of light wood structure.Three pieces of bamboo pole trusses were tested, and the ultimate loading capacity is 12.3 kN.A prefabricated bamboo pole demonstration house with a construction area of 50 m2 was designed and constructed according to the testing results and the code for the design of timber structures.The demonstration house has been used for about three years and its condition is desirable.
