Investigation on Resisting of Composite Concrete Deep Beam by Bamboo Culm

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to investigate the sustainability of the composite concrete Bamboo reinforced deep beam under three-point bending analysis. The Bamboo culms have light weight, and they are resistance under the bending test. Despite extending the length of the concrete beam, it behaved perfectly by adding Bamboo culms as reinforcement bars. The composite concrete Bamboo reinforced deep beam is presented the excellent chord rotation which is close to the steel reinforced concrete beam (SRCB). Also, the moment rotation of the CCBRB is same to the (SRCB).  That is why Bamboo might be utilized as an alternative to steel reinforcement bars in buildings.
