        abstract = {Bamboo Reinforced Concrete (BRC) is an eco-friendly construction technique that replaces conventional steel reinforcement with bamboo — a renewable, lightweight, and cost-effective natural material. This project explores the feasibility of bamboo as reinforcement in concrete beams, emphasizing sustainability, material preparation, and performance comparison with RCC beams. Experimental testing showed that treated bamboo beams possess satisfactory load-carrying capacity, ductility, and cost benefits, making them a viable option for low-cost and rural housing.},
