  • First Online:
Resource-Driven Sustainable Bamboo Construction in Asia-Pacific Bamboo Areas

Part of the book series: Green Energy and Technology ((GREEN))

Abstract

Sustainable bamboo construction requires systematic and scientific integration and allocation of involved resources to achieve the optimization of a comprehensive value. The resources mentioned include not only nature but also social and human aspects. A clear analysis of resource elements is a prerequisite for clarifying the decisive variables related to the sustainability of bamboo construction activities. For this, the chapter summarizes the status quo of the bamboo forest resource, bamboo industrial utilization, and processing technology, as well as the economic, social, and environmental impacts of the bamboo industry, which lays the foundation for the development of sustainable solutions.
