The physical and mechanical properties of golla cane (Daemonorops Jenkinsiana) have been studied at three height positions. The variation of the properties due to node and internode has also been determined. The moisture content increases gradually from the bottom to the top. The specific gravity, compressive strength and bending strength decrease along the culm height. It is found that the node and internode have no effect on most of the properties. The inverse correlation is found for physical properties with compressive strength.
