With regard to the optimization test of mixing ratio between waste bamboo and cement, the single
axial compression strength of the second set (5 : 95) is the highest. By increasing the mixing ratio to 10 : 90
and complying with Chinese national standard (CNS) required strength for water permeable bricks. In the test
for optimizing the mixing ratio of waste bamboo-charcoal and cement, the second set of single-axial compression
strengths is the highest. Further increasing the ratio to 40 : 60, the single-axial compression strength also can be up
to 9.212MPa, and complying with CNS requir 7.840MPa for the strength of decoration bricks. In the investigation
of the optimization ratio for the mixture ratio of 2 (hammered fine coal debris) :1 (fly-ash): 1 (cement) after a
28-day aging, and the resultant strength of 39.788 MPa are observed for each set, and complying with the strength
required by CNS for high-pressure brick C-grade. By means of natural strengthen agents can increase the strength,
it is concluded that the strengthen agents can significantly increase the strength after aging for 6 to 28 days. For
competitive strategy for a future market, it should be focused on the creation of differentiation for product and
technology, the increase of service and features, as well as the branding effect to become a price-leader.
