Bamboo isn’t technically wood but is a part of the Poaceae (grass) family. Timber-producing bamboo trees are commonly found in South Asia and are a common source of commercial timber often used as a cost-effective alternative to expensive hardwoods like teak. Depending on the species, bamboo can be moderately hard and heavy. The timber is light yellow or white and almost non-durable in terms of resistance to decay and insect attacks. It will start deteriorating within a few years due to attacks by fungi and mold.
