Building construction and operations count for nearly 40% global carbon emission. Sustainable building materials and design is at the forefront of fighting against the climate change.  Bamboo is the fastest growing woody fiber on the planet. It has a faster carbon sequestration rate than wood due to its larger yield per hectare and extensive perennial belowground rhizomes. Bamboo is stronger and stiffer than many commodity lumber species and can be processed into engineered bamboo products and wood hybrid products like cross laminated timber, glued laminated timber, parallel strand lumber and veneer laminated lumber. Bamboo is a highly renewable construction material, but better understanding and data is needed on the material properties, design considerations, manufacturing, quality control, building code certifications and sustainable management of this naturally variable resource.  This micro-certificate program aims to fill in these knowledge gaps to help promote diversification of natural fibers in value-added building materials. In addition to the international expertise of UBC BAM group members, an expert panel of industry leaders and academics has been curated to present case studies on real world bamboo projects, as well as fundamental knowledge.
