<p>Bamboo, a grass belonging to Poaceae family, has been repeatedly proposed as an alternative to steel reinforcement due to cost effectiveness, environment friendliness and renewability. Bamboo is abundantly available naturally in various humid, sub-humid and mild temperate locations of the world as well as India produces second-highest bamboo globally. Bamboo is an appraised purposeful plant with a short-term reformative growth cycle which brands it a green construction material. It is a sustainable material which requires very less energy to cultivate and obtain. Bamboo demonstrates to afford reputable reinforcement as it controls excellent tensile and compressive strength characteristics. Before using bamboo splints as reinforcement, they must be seasoned and treated. Bamboo strip profile and surface treatment method need to be researched in order to enhance the behaviour of the bamboo-concrete bond. Bamboo has been reinforced in various concrete members by a number of researchers using various reinforcement profiles and treatment techniques. The investigation makes an effort to validate opting bamboo for competent and real-world development as an appropriate material and appraising the literature to put into practice bamboo in the construction domain. Properties like distinct flexibility and growth rate, low weight to height ratio, higher tensile strength offers widespread opportunities to consume bamboo as building material.</p>
