Density of Carbon Fiber is 1743kg/m^3 and that of Bamboo is 1160 kg/m^3.
Acrlyic, Nylon, Polycarbonate have similar density as Bamboo.
Bamboo's strength falls somewhere between fiberglass and carbon fiber
Some things to think about include ecological factors (bamboo is renewable), environmental factors (bamboo is flammable), loading factors (steel can be made ductile and its high properties are isotropic), and weight considerations (bamboo is much less dense) compared to Steel.
- orblivion 8y ago> bamboo is renewable What if it's treated?
- greggyb 8y agoI think the parent is referring to being able to grow easily. Per the video, an 18m timber can be grown in 3 years. I believe you are thinking of recycle-abiliy, which would be reusing an existing piece of bamboo. Both are valuable considerations.
- ajuc 8y agoIs this density including the void inside, or just for the non-hollow parts?
- choot 8y agoExcluding void.
