In Thailand, bamboo is one of the most socioeconomically important species. They grow incredibly fast and well known as “pioneer species”. They can rapidly invade into any kind of land, including degraded areas/Being pioneer species, they are frequently found in open land throughout the country. Mainly use the local material ( different spieces of bamboo) is benifit for the finance and technical skill

Genreal Distribution of Bamboo in South Asia N

Background information on the status of bamboo forests in thailand is briefly given, and some mention is made of bamboo locally used in handcrafts, industry,food and husing. Due to the tropical climate, the species of bamboo are abundant, It is estimated that more than half of bamboo species in the world can be found in Thailand. The taxonomy of bamboo species in thailand is still in its infancy, at present it is estimated that there are 12 genera and 41 species km 0

Three main Species of Bamboo Structure Distribution in South Asia

Giant Bamboo

Rough Bamboo

There are 13 genera and 60 species of bamboos recorded in Thailand and most of them are â&#x20AC;&#x153;sympodial typeâ&#x20AC;?. A list of 10 important commercial bamboos species in Thailand is shown (Table 3). The important species of bamboo in Thailand may be divided into three groups according to their utilization; for shoot and stem production. 1. Bamboos for shoot production (for food) such as Dendrocalamus asper (Pai Tong), D. brandisii (Pai Bongyai), D. strictus (Pai Sangdoi), Bambusa blumeana (Pai Seesuk), Thyrsostachys siamensis (Pai Ruak), T. oliverii (Pai Ruakdum) and Gigantochloa albociliata (Pai Rai). 2. Bamboos for stem production (for construction and supporting poles) such as B. bambos (Pai Pha), B. blumeana, B. nana (multiplex) (Pai Liang), D. asper, D. strictus, D. membranaceus (Pai Sangnuan), T. oliverii and G. hasskarliana (Pai Phaak).

A key aim of the project is to use locally sourced materials. The main benefits of this is that it benefits the local economy and reduces the carbon footprint of the building as locally sourced materials requires less transportation.

Three main Species of Bamboo Structure 1

Giant Bamboo

Height=25-35m (Total height) Growing fast Uses: Giant Bamboo is one among the twelve high yielding bamboos worth raising as a large scale bamboo plantation, as it is very good for construction, paper production and young shoots are good for vegetable products. This bamboo species produces a large amount of biomass. It can give an annual yield of 20 to 30 t/ha, which is 2.7 times more than that of Dendrocalamus latiflorus. Growth Habit Dense Clumping Climate Tropical - Subtropical Hardiness -1째C Origin Southeast Asia

Diameters=13-30cm

Rough Bamboo

Height=20-30m (Total height) Heavy construction Uses: Dendrocalamus asper stems are used as a building material and structural timber for heavy construction such as houses and bridges. The culm intemodes used as containers for water and other fluids, and as cooking pots. This bamboo is also used for making laminated boards, furniture, musical instruments, chopsticks, household utensils and handicrafts. Young shoots are sweet and considered a delicious vegetable. Many clustered branches with 1 larger central dominant branch usually occur from ca. 9th node up. Diameters=8-20cm Growth Habit Climate Hardiness Origin

Clumping Tropical - Subtropical -4 째C Malaysia

White Bamboo

Height=20-24m (Total height)

This bamboo species is a good source for paper pulp and has edible shoots. Uses: This bamboo is used for building purposes, furniture, bamboo board, agricultural implements, slat traps, matting, chopsticks, basketry, handicrafts, and as props for fruit trees. It is also one of the most promising species for pulp. Shoots are edible and consumed as a vegetable. Bambusa membranacea is a moderate-sized, strong bamboo forming loose clump. Culms are straight and usually between 20-24 m high and 6-10 cm in diameter. Internodes are 22-38 cm long and covered with a white powdery deciduous scurf when young, but green on maturity. Nodes are strongly ringed and basal nodes show rootlets.

Design Realisation Report Unit 22 Xiaoying Lin

Introduction of three main construction bamboo materials' chararcteristics. The detail of their diamentions, habitat and living condition. Also the very important of their main purpose. The different kind of bamboo I chose for different parts of building is according to their special characteristics. They can act better performance while in suitable position. Over 50 species bamboo stems have different thickness and hardness, and their living area is different, consider about the transport cost as well during material chosen

Design Realisation Report Unit 22 Xiaoying Lin

p. 47

Propagation by branch cuttings is a useful, practical and effective method. It is a good method for raising commercial large-scale plantations as in the case of Dendrocalamus asper. The species has aerial roots at the base of the lateral branch. Bigger branches have more potential for rooting than small ones. Rooting is abundant in rice husk charcoal medium, the roots are slender, thin and long, whereas those in soil are bigger and clustered. The rooting efficiency of each species is different and depends on culm size and wall thickness. Thick-walled bamboos posses potential for higher sprouting and rooting probably due to more food reserves in the culm.
