Seven chapters follow. Fire and insulation claims name test families (Euroclass, ASTM E84, ISO 5660, KS F) rather than inventing a single safety number. Bamboo is sold as grades, not as a single substance. Chemistry cellulose–hemicellulose–lignin, density ~0.6–0.8 g/cm³ culm, heat band chars; does not melt.

Bamboo is one of 32 materials in this atlas, grouped under ceramics: history, structure, measured properties, process routes, uses, safety and market — not a product catalogue. Scores compare Bamboo with the rest of the atlas on strength, heat, fire behaviour, insulation, workability and circularity. They are editorial, not certificates.

Origin: ancient scaffolding; industrial strand board late 20th c., East and South Asia. The process chapter follows feedstock → conversion → forming → finish → install. Bamboo (cellulose–hemicellulose–lignin) is a family of grades whose density ~0.6–0.8 g/cm³ culm, heat band chars; does not melt, and fire letter untreated D-class typical; treated products vary.
