Application of Bamboo Building Materials in Green Building Design

ABSTRACT

Green and low-carbon development has become a trendsetter for urban and rural construction in China. Key research areas and priority development themes include green building, energy conservation, and the utilization of agricultural and forest biological resources. The replacement of traditional building materials with bamboo or timber aligns with national strategic needs. However, bamboo, as a traditional regional building material, still faces questions in contemporary architectural practice. This paper presents an empirical analysis of bamboo building applications both domestically and abroad, summarizes its advantages and shortcomings, and explores the applicability of bamboo building materials. The goal is to provide references for green building design practice.
