There exist various methods of strengthening defective concrete structures which include; use of bolted steel plates for strengthening columns and beams[2], jacketing of columns using a membrane of reinforced concrete[1, 3], using composites such as Glass Fibre and Polypropylene Fibre Based Engineered Cementitious Composites (GFPPECC)[4] and Post-Tensioned Metal Strapping (PTMS) or Side-Near Surface Mounted (NSM) techniques[5].

The National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) used to fund several projects for the studies of bamboo in civil engineering.
The project ‘Design theory and applied basic research of a new bamboo structure’, focus on the structural application of ‘GluBam’, a kind of plybamboo, and carries out thermal performance comparison between bamboo and timber-based wall constructions, showing that, both at the material and the wall levels, the thermal insulation capacity of engineered bamboo composites are slightly lower than the timber groups [4].
In building engineering, H&M process models have been developed for calculation.
In this study, based on a framework of HAM model proposed by Künzel [9], and basic parameters including the Chinese representative cities with climate data exported from the Meteonorm platform, the BBE model groups in the computational program WUFI Plus for annual H&M process are set up, with consideration to the engineering conditions such as the outdoor climate, indoor heat and moisture load, building devices, construction types, etc.
In China, the building envelope thermal design is required to be in accordance with the ‘Code for thermal design of civil building (GB 50176 - 2016)’, where China is divided into five thermal zones, mainly according to the monthly average air temperature.

Overview Temperature cracks in mass concrete is complex, it’s involving many aspects of engineering structures.
Many of the engineering and devices foundation slab structures are used in mass concrete.
Therefore, cracks in mass concrete control, it is need foran integrated technical about two aspect, economic requirements andoverall planning technology, It’s a significant engineering problems to look for a better crack control measures that meet the technical requirements at the same time[4]
