The objective of this study was to investigate the impact performance of bamboo oriented strand board under different impact energy. Bamboo oriented strand board with two types of strand orientation distribution, both with mainly parallel aligned strand orientation (LVSL) and three-layer assembly with orthogonally oriented strands (BOSB), were prepared. The impact properties of the boards, both untreated and treated with submersion, were investigated at seven energy levels. Additionally, the damage morphology was characterized using an X-ray computed tomography (CT) scanner. The results indicated that BOSB provided a larger maximum load carrying capacity, and represented superior impact properties compared to LVSL. The shapes of force/energy–time history of BOSB and LVSL were different from projectile energy levels, and they were related to the specimen destruction forms via CT scanning. Moreover, CT scanning revealed that LVSL and BOSB exhibited similar damage behaviors, which mainly included delamination and fibers breakage. The dent depth of BOSB on the impact site was less than LVSL’s for touch types, and there was more internal fracture inside the layers of LVSL at relatively higher energy levels of 300 J and 450 J. Furthermore, BOSB still exhibited better impact performance than LVSL under the condition of submersion. |
