Description / Abstract:
This International Standard specifies test procedures for specimens obtained from round bamboo culms. The data obtained from the test methods may be used to establish characteristic physical or mechanical properties to be used in structural engineering design or for other scientific purposes. The Standard provides methods for evaluating the following physical and strength properties: moisture content, density, mass per unit length; strength properties parallel to the fibre direction- compression, tension and bending, and strength properties perpendicular to the fibre direction-tension and bending. It also provides methods to estimate moduli of elasticity in bending, compression, and tension parallel to the fibres.
The test methods reported in this standard are intended for commercial testing applications; it is recommended that they also be adopted as benchmark methods for scientific research.
