From food, clothing, crafts, to its use in construction and engineering in general, it is remarkable to use bamboo over time and civilizations. Bamboo is a functional material due to its diverse possibilities of use, properties, cost and strong environmental appeal. Brazil, with its vast natural wealth and huge demand for wood products, has bamboo as a great ally in the development of new products that meet the prospects of sustainability. This paper presents an initial methodology for the production of a prototype of a composite of bamboo fibers and thermoset polymer resin. Despite the absence of established norms for this type of composite, the physical and mechanical properties were evaluated according to the norms ABNT NBR 7190; ASTM D143 and ISO 22157-1. The tests demonstrated the great feasibility in the production of this composite in substitution of the traditional high density wood used in structures in Brazil.
