Flexural capacity improvement of the bamboo reinforced concrete beam with perpendicular pivot hooks

Abstract Bamboo as a natural resource is very common used in constructio, such columns and beams, also can be architectural elements. The form of bamboo reinforcement still under identification by many scholars to find an optimum shape bamboo, thus it may applied concrete since improve concrete’s flexural strength. An experimental test conduct order identify the role perpendicular pivot end reinforced beams observing capacity improvement. Four with dimension 15 cm x 25 170 were made 2 square section lateral Ø8 – 100 steel rebar shear prohibit failure. loaded three-point bending point loading middle span. Based on result, which equipped could load up 33% higher than beam without end. This proofed that considerable develop beam.
