Abstract: Concrete is the artificially produce material in the world. Reinforced concrete is used in general construction work. Cost of steel reinforcement is quite high. So it is necessary to find cheaper alternative to steel reinforcement. Bamboo can used as reinforcement for light weight structures. Large no. of investigators began to find cost effective and energy efficient construction material as reinforcing material. Among the many possibility for such substitution, bamboo is considered. Bamboo grows and develops rapidly and it is quite economical also. Ample tensile strength makes bamboo fit far using as reinforcement alternative to plain steel bars. An important investigation in structural engineering can be done by placing bamboo as reinforcement. In this review paper emphasis is made on tensile strength, compressive strength and flexural strength.
