“…Furthermore, an interface phase exists to separate two or more phases, and the characteristics of the interface phase are not described by any of the phases in isolation [16]. Most composite materials are made up of a continuous matrix phase and a non-continuous reinforcement phase that is harder and stronger than the matrix phase [17].…”

Bamboo is an ancient structural material used for a variety of applications in India. Bamboo is widely used in the global south for frames, bridges, housing, and transitory structures. Bamboo supply has been effectively inexpensive as well as plentiful in global south countries to meet the widespread need for affordable housing. The current research focuses on the mechanical properties of bamboo fibre reinforced polymer composite materials for use in structural industries. Moreover, a bamboo fibre reinforced composite was compared to glass fibre in a variety of ways, and it was discovered that the bamboo fibre composite outperformed the glass fibre in a few areas. Investigations revealed the potential use of bamboo fibre reinforced composite with good stiffness but a lower strength limitation than glass fibre composite. Tensile strength of 40.53 MPa and hardness value of 68.2 RHN were achieved by E-glass epoxy composites. However, the results of bamboo fibre reinforced composites cannot be overlooked. Further research was conducted to improve the mechanical properties, and the results were satisfactory.
