Monotonic and Cyclic Tests of Round Bamboo Shear Walls

Abstract:

This paper reports the first step of a study to evaluate the lateral resistance capacity of Round bamboo shear walls and its mechanical properties under Monotonic and cyclic loading conditions. The bamboo shear walls are built with round bamboo as its stub and with ply-bamboo sheet as its sheathing. Load-displacement curves of six round bamboo shear walls, with three different connection types, were obtained in this experiment, and the test results showed that the lateral resistance capacity of round bamboo shear walls can exceed 4.0kN/m, satisfying the projects requirement. A combination of nail and panel failures were observed in the test.
