In the search for low-impact materials due to the predatory nature of the construction industry,
bamboo emerges as a viable alternative. Based on this, the present article aims to demonstrate the
use of this plant material and verify the efficiency of the solutions adopted by Jörg Stamm in the use
of bamboo, through a literature review and case study of the Orangutan Haven bamboo bridge. It
was observed, after analyzing the foundation to the covering of this work, that solutions were
adopted that combined both techniques executed up to the 2000s and innovative adaptations to
highlight the architecture and the plant material, such as the predominance of bamboo throughout
the construction, as well as solutions such as the pinboo flooring and three-layered roof. |
