Abstract
Glued laminated bamboo (glubam), a product of bamboo lamination, presents a distinctive combination of eco-friendliness and mechanical strength. This study delves into the quasi-static and dynamic compression behaviour of glubam, examining the influence of key factors such as moisture content and carbonization. The experiment involved one control group and two groups of different carbonized degrees, with two relative humidity controls set at 65 % and 85 %. The results of the quasi-static compression tests revealed that higher moisture content reduced the ultimate stress and modulus of compression while enhancing the ductility of thick-strip glubam. Cross bamboo alignment bolstered the compressive strengths of longitudinal thin-strip glubam and provided considerable compressive capacity for transverse thin-strip glubam. Poisson’s ratios of glubam were also determined. During drop-tower impact testing, an input energy of 209.5 J resulted in the determination of the dynamic ultimate stress of glubam. The application of reasonable image procedures, supported by high-speed camera collections, aided in the efficient presentation of absorbed energy. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images were employed to explore experimental results through the microstructure perspective.
期刊介绍:
Construction and Building Materials offers an international platform for sharing innovative and original research and development in the realm of construction and building materials, along with their practical applications in new projects and repair practices. The journal publishes a diverse array of pioneering research and application papers, detailing laboratory investigations and, to a limited extent, numerical analyses or reports on full-scale projects. Multi-part papers are discouraged.
Additionally, Construction and Building Materials features comprehensive case studies and insightful review articles that contribute to new insights in the field. Our focus is on papers related to construction materials, excluding those on structural engineering, geotechnics, and unbound highway layers. Covered materials and technologies encompass cement, concrete reinforcement, bricks and mortars, additives, corrosion technology, ceramics, timber, steel, polymers, glass fibers, recycled materials, bamboo, rammed earth, non-conventional building materials, bituminous materials, and applications in railway materials.
