BAMBOO BRACE
General purpose for the uses at construction sites. Where steel braces can be used bamboo brace can be utilized at a much lower cost.

3.0" x 3.0" Thickness, 3,4,6,8,10 mm Length 2.50m - 3.00m
2.5" x 2.5" Thickness, 3,4,6,8,10 mm Length 2.50m - 3.00m

It is the further step of the bamboo plywood development.
With its structure that likes the L-Beam, this can be substituted with the construction steel.
It is strong and stiff material and yet relatively inexpensive and it can be easily fabricated and erected as the versatile product for multi-purposes usage.
