摘要:Glued-laminated bamboo has been widely used to substitute timber as a building material. This material classified as a viscoelastic material because it exhibiting properties that are common to both solid and liquid. Under long-term constant loading, the glued-laminated bamboo structures will experience creep deformation. The mechanical, power law and finite element models are common methods that used to predict the creep for viscoelastic material, some of them have advantages and disadvantages. In this manuscript, modelling of long-term creep is reviewed. The fundamental concepts of creep modelling, the influence of variable load level, and humidity were discussed to develop for computational applications. By using FEA program, a subroutine has been developed by previous researchers to accommodate the effect of orthotropic properties. In the future, the subroutine will be used and developed for numerical creep analysis of glued-laminated bamboo.
