This paper based on the unified strength theory, analyzed the ultimate bearing capacity of the reinforced concrete columns combined with FRP under axial loads. First, analyzed the mechanical property of the RC columns combined with FRP. Second, based on the unified strength theory, deduced the three-direction compressive stress of the core concrete and got the unified formula for calculating the ultimate bearing capacity of RC columns combined with FRP. Last, compared the analytical results obtained in this paper with the relevant experimental data, good agreement can be found and it proved the good applicability of the formula. Comparing with other methods in calculating the ultimate bearing capacity of RC columns combined with FRP,this method is well-founded, so it has a significant value in analysis of RC columns combined with FRP.
