With the increase of the utilization of bamboo, we must find out more in bamboo properties. According to the national standard GB/T15780 -1995, this paper analyzed the air-dried density and mechanical properties of Moso bamboo in different ages and stalk parts. The results showed that both the age and the stalk part have remarkable effects on air-dried density and mechanical properties. The effect of age is much more prominent than that of stalk part. The performance shows: upper > middle > down, which increases with the age, and reaches to the peak values at the age of 4 and show a downward trend at the age of 6. According to the tests, the optimum age of bamboo for cutting is about at 4. Moreover, there is a positive correlation between air-dried density and mechanical properties. The correlation coefficients between air-dried density and crushing strength parallel to the grain, bending strength, modulus of elasticity and tensile strength parallel to the grain are 0.917 3, 0.783 9, 0.745 8 and 0.507 4, respectively. In addition, there is a good relativity among mechanical properties, δt: δc: MOR: MOE = 2.79: 1.00: 2.40: 0.15.
