Abstract: The article focuses on a novel simplified nonlinear model for bamboo-reinforced concrete (BRC) beams based on lumped damage mechanics (LDM). The authors propose this model as an efficient alternative to traditional finite element analysis, which can be computationally intensive. The model aims to accurately predict the flexural performance of BRC beams, taking into account the unique properties of bamboo, such as its bond strength with concrete and its tensile strength. Experimental comparisons demonstrate that the proposed model aligns well with observed behaviors in BRC beams, indicating its potential for practical applications in structural reliability analysis.
