I actually saw a house built from it, the whole house, everything from beams to woven panels to more solid looking panels. Looked a lot better than it sounds. There were parts I couldnt believe were bamboo as they were like sheets of timber, sure enough, bamboo.

In parts of Asia they scaffold high rise buildings with it, strong stuff.

Yeah i'm quickly learning that it is brilliant stuff, it's come a long from the days of the old bamboo lounge chairs that squeaked and creaked from every movement and looked bloody ugly
