Application of Bamboo in Building Envelope

Zujian Huang is a joint Ph.D. student of Architecture at South China University of Technology (SCUT) in China and the Technical University of Munich (TUM) in Germany. He has participated in several research projects on building materials, building energy efficiency and urban design, and has practical experience in building design and conservation, which includes several bamboo projects carried out together with Markus Heinsdorff. Since 2014, he has spent years investigating the bamboo market, as well as carrying out bamboo material property tests and bamboo building envelope performance simulations, and finally finished his dissertation. After graduation in June 2018, he continues the Postdoctoral research on the subject of green building materials and building envelopes at SCUT.
