Description
In November 2021, a symposium was held to identify knowledge gaps, and research needs and priorities in the bamboo community. Participants who were asked to complete a post-symposium survey on research gaps, needs and priorities. Both rank-order and open-ended questions were asked covering the broad areas of i) determination of material properties, testing and grading; ii) bamboo connection techniques and technology; iii) bamboo durability and fire performance; and, iv) construction using engineered bamboo. This paper reports the survey and its results. Subsequent discussion identifies priorities for future research that can be leveraged to move the use of bamboo in construction forward.
