Due to the fact that steel is not renewable and polluting steel mills are fairly high. The bond strength is a major concern for the natural fiber used as reinforcement in structural composites. This paper reports study on the bond strength of bamboo reinforcement in concrete, to determine the adhesion reinforcement in concrete often do by the pull-out test. The research objective was bond strength of lightweight concrete and bamboo reinforcement. The test used light weight concrete with foam additives klerak. Bamboo slats were coated with paint and sprinkled with sand. The results obtained showed that the bond strength bamboo 60% of the bond strength steel.展开更多
