“…Theoretically, physical characteristics such as moisture content and density can affect tensile strength, which means that the top part of the bamboo will typically have more tensile strength than the bottom and middle. However, the study by Rochim et al [52] shows that bamboo's highest tensile and compressive strength is not consistently located at the top part of the stem. According to Bahtiar et al [20], the chemical characteristics of bamboo, such as lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose, are also associated with the tensile strength of bamboo.…”

The suitability of bamboo’s basic characteristics is very important for more specific purposes, such as composite raw materials. Anatomical, physical, mechanical, and chemical characteristics are some of bamboo’s fundamental characteristics. This study analyses the basic properties, such as physical, mechanical, and chemical properties of bamboo from the Forest Area with Special Purpose (FASP) Pondok Buluh Sumatera Island, Indonesia (I); analyses the relationship between the properties of each type of bamboo (II); and chooses the type of bamboo with the best properties that have the potential to be applied to composite materials, such as laminated bamboo (III). This study used materials consisting of six species of bamboo from the FASP Pondok Buluh. The manufacture of physical and mechanical test samples refers to the ISO 22157 standard, 2004, while the chemical properties test refers to the TAPPI 1999 standard. The chemical, physical, and mechanical properties of bamboo vary widely among species. The lowest holocellulose and α-cellulose content were found in the Kuning Bamboo (B. vulgaris var. vittata). The content of holocellulose and α-cellulose causes the lowest density in Kuning Bamboo (B. vulgaris var. vittata). The Dasar Bamboo (Bambusa vulgaris) has the highest levels of lignin. The substances have an impact on moisture content, T/R ratio, and shear strength. The Dasar Bamboo (Bambusa vulgaris) has the lowest moisture content, the highest T/R ratio, and the highest shear strength. However, Betung Bamboo (Dendrocalamus asper) has the highest density in this study. The compressive strength of the Betung Bamboo (Dendrocalamus asper) has the highest value. Therefore, Betung bamboo and Dasar Bamboo in this study were potentially utilized for composite materials, such as laminated bamboo.

“…Bamboo strips are obtained by splitting the bamboo into several parts depending on the desired width. Bamboo has good mechanical properties and can be used as a reinforcing material, such as particle boards (Iswanto et al, 2022), composite boards (Cha et al, 2022), ceramics (Hwang and Oh, 2023), and soil reinforcement materials (Rochim et al, 2020).…”

Bamboo culm is in the form of a tube/pipe, composed of internodes which are bounded by a partition/diaphragm (node). Anatomically, bamboo is composed of vascular bundles and parenchyma ground tissue. One of the constituents of vascular bundles is fibers that are grouped to form a fiber sheath. The anatomical structure of the nodes and internodes is thought to influence the strength of bamboo strips, including tensile strength. This study aimed to determine the characteristics of vascular bundles (distribution and fiber percentage) and their effects on the density and tensile strength of Gigantochloa apus bamboo strips with and without nodes. The bamboo culms were divided into three parts (outer, middle, and inner) along the radial direction. The results showed that the distribution of vascular bundles and percentage of fiber sheaths decreased significantly from the outer to the inner layer. This also had a significantly decreased density and tensile strength. Furthermore, the number of vascular bundles (in the transverse plane) was greater in the internodes than in the nodes. Anatomically, the orientation of the vascular bundles at irregular nodes is observed in the radial and tangential planes, where the direction is not only in the axial direction, but also in the radial and tangential directions. This caused the tensile strength of the G. apus bamboo strips to be lower at the nodes than at the internodes.

“…Natural fibres are among agri-cultural wastes with significant advantages of high strength [7,8], less abrasiveness [9], cost-efficient [7], lightweight [9], biodegradability [10], and being eco-friendly [11]. Natural fibres can be obtained abundantly from many types of plants, such as bamboo [12,13], kenaf [14], sisal [4,15], jute [15], and banana [16]. Waste generation at the global level is expected to increase by 70% in 2050.…”

Natural fibres have recently gained attention as an alternative sustainable material for civil engineering applications due to natural fibres' exceptional performance, including high strength, and their environmental-friendliness and cost-effectiveness. however, there are disadvantages to using natural fibres in extreme environments. Therefore, this paper reviewed the effect of moisture content and temperature on the tensile strength of potential natural fibres for engineering purposes. Furthermore, this paper also critically reviewed the influence of alkaline treatment on natural fibres' tensile strength. This is significant because alkaline treatment enhances surface friction and the fraction of the revealed cellulose on the fibres' surface, resulting in better mechanical interlocking. In conclusion, natural fibres demonstrate their potential for geotechnical applications due to the materials' strong tensile properties after being subjected to treatment processes.
