BambooPrefab! 

Time for change! This web site closing later this year, now focusing on:

Bamboo Technical Detailing:

• Conflicts with industrial/planar materials.
• Dimensional standards
• Template rigs for large scale production.
• Computerized tools (CNC, 3Dprint etc)

Previously made research and development on this site can still be sourced under the Archive tabs

The natural features of bamboo given by nature make each individual culm unique: often curved, more or less tapered, sometimes with oval or irregular section, varying inter-node lengths… The strength properties of tension and compression can vary considerably according to the different 1000+ bamboo species. Matching bamboo with planar and rectilinear materials is therefore a huge challenge. Industrialization and modular design necessary for prefabrication become virtually impossible without intermediate steps to circumvent these conflicts.
