Due to terrific growth of population all over India, there is increase in demand for buildings to provide adequate shelter for people. Because of this reason, there is increase in concrete structures and other type of structure. The concrete structures are very heavy as compared to wooden structure. So these concrete structures can be replaced by wooden composites materials and other type of materials. The implementation of new technology will result in waste material being efficiently utilized as sustainable resources for the industry. In this study, bamboo is used as a renewable material along with saw dust and coconut husk as agricultural waste. Bamboo is fast growing and ecologically friendly material for structural applications is being considered as quite appropriate. Bamboo composites panels can provide tailored solution to the eco- housing initiatives at cheaper coasts. In this study the attempt has been made to develop engineered bamboo composite panels for use in housing.
