Rising demand for housing in the global south must be met while focusing on lowering carbon emissions to mitigate the growing influence of climate change. Current bamboo structures typically consist of (1) lattice-based structures using full culm bamboo, which do not create modern building enclosures, or (2) bamboo composites which require disaggregation and reconstitution of the bamboo, increasing the carbon footprint. This paper explains our concept, Smart Bamboo (SB), a lightly modified bamboo composite system that uses digital analysis and fabrication tools to create panelized building systems that utilize the sectional properties of full culm bamboo with composite cross-lamination strategies.
