隨著節能減碳議題逐漸受到重視，綠色材料的使用成為結構設計之趨勢。竹材具有良好的固碳能力，能夠在三、四年內生長為能作為結構使用之成材，然而目前因台灣欠缺竹構造相關建築法規，使得竹構造長期不被重視。本研究以廣泛生長於台灣西南部之刺竹竹片為材料，利用竹片良好的彎曲性能，透過撓曲主動的原理提升構件剛度，並以少量人力及簡易工具即可完成搭建為前提，設計構築一座成人可進入使用之輕量空間結構。藉由將竹片重新視為新材料，以工程方法對其進行規劃、設計、驗證與施工，建立一套完整的設計方法論。
本研究首先以自重下僅受純軸力的懸垂殼（Catenary shell）作為主要造形依據發展結構系統，因應尺寸與材料之限制，進行接頭、開口部、基礎的細部設計，同時透過縮尺模型檢核結構的造型、空間與分層施工的可行性。設計發展完成以後，針對竹材構件與多種接頭方案進行力學試驗，並計算各構件與接頭的設計強度，選用最適合的接頭方案應用於空間結構，最終進行足尺之實構以檢驗其施工性與真實強度。由於竹材作為天然材料在尺寸上具有變異性，本研究將結構在構造上切分為三層，能減少每次使用構件長度以降低尺寸變化，並使其能夠分層施工，以降低每次施工所需高度而不須搭建施工架。
本研究使用SAP2000對整體結構進行分析，根據台灣建築物耐風設計規範計算設計風力並設定風載重，探討整體結構於自重與風力作用下之行為，並檢核構件與接頭強度是否滿足需求。由於不確定空間結構中的交叉接頭剛性是否足夠，本文分別將其束制條件設定為鉸接與剛接進行分析，結果顯示鉸接模型之多項分析結果超出設計強度，顯示接頭束制條件明顯影響結構行為。

This study utilized split Thorny Bamboo widely found in southwestern Taiwan to create a spatial structure system that can be applied in architecture. The strength and stiffness of members are enhanced through active bending, thus creating a more efficient use and reduce carbon emissions. The design purpose is to make a lightweight structure that can be easily constructed with manual labor without using falsework or scaffold.
The study set up a complete planning-designing-verifying-and-constructing methodology, in which split bamboo is considered as new material. Catenary shell was selected to be the form of the structure, which members are mainly subjected to axial force under gravity load. Then, detail design was made according to the structure scale, material size, and constructability issues, through building various small-scaled models simultaneously. After the design, material and several joint alternative tests were performed to determine the properties of bamboo material and joints, later calculated into joint and member capacity. Finally, full-scale construction was carried out for practice.
The overall analysis of the structure was performed by using SAP2000, applying gravity load and lateral wind loads calculated according to “Taiwan building wind-resistant design code” to the model. Hinge joint and fixed joint were applied respectively to the structure model, the result shows that the hinge joint model has a larger deformation and exceeds the design capacity, while the fixed joint model meets the requirements.
