ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT: The objective of this research is to give an alternative house construction technology, which exploiting bamboo potential as replacement for steel reinforcement. Basically, this research is an explorative research in design and implementation on the building material, prefabricated building components, casting equipment and method, and assembling process. The result of this research is a prototype of prefabricated building, which use prefabricated components with steel reinforcement for structural element and bamboo reinforcement for architectural element such as partition wall panel, formwork panel and doo r-window frame.
