【 摘 要 】

Burning fossil fuels increases the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is the main cause of the greenhouse effect and global warming. Climate change causes an increase in the number of human deaths due to diseases and natural disasters. In general, in the past decade there has been deforestation of 13 million ha / year. The highest deforestation rates (> 3.4 million ha / year) occur in South America and Africa while in Asia also experience deforestation in many places. Bamboo forests are very important especially in East and Southeast Asia as well as in Africa. The potential of bamboo is very large in controlling soil erosion, water conservation, land rehabilitation and carbon sequestration. In carbon sequestration bamboo contributes very significantly. The use of bamboo as an environmentally friendly construction material is very important to do. Testing of bamboo mechanical properties based on ISO 3129-1975 standards, which includes testing of fiber parallel compressive strength, parallel fiber shear strength, fiber parallel tensile strength and straight fiber tagak flexural strength. Setting-up testing is carried out after each specimen in the condition of the kiln dry water content is in the range 12-13% according to the requirements of the ISO 3129-1975 standard. Analysis of variants (Anova) of pressure treatment on bamboo material has an effect on some of the mechanical properties of bamboo. Pressure treatments up to 2.5 MPa have a significant effect on the elastic modulus, tensile strength and shear strength of bamboo while the compressive strength is not significantly affected by the pressure treatment of bamboo material. Bamboo forests have a big influence in reducing the impact of global warming and climate change.
