Shaped load-carrying structures (1) are fabricated using bamboo linear fibers (6) with a compatible bonding material and synthetic polymers (8) such as polyesters, epoxies, and polyolefins. The structures (1) are manufactured by coating at least one of bamboo culms, split bamboo culms, bamboo fiber tape, or prepared bamboo fibers with a bonding material to produce a core. The core is then combined with a polymer matrix (8) and extruded or molded to form a structure (1) having the desired shape. The structures (1) compare favorably with wood, steel, and concrete regarding strength, longevity, price and ability to withstand earthquakes. The structures (1) may be used as beams, columns, telephone poles, marine piles and pallets.
