This paper focuses on the the relationship between strength and ductility of high-strength concrete (HSC) columns with high-strength aseismic transverse reinforcement under concentric compression and its influencing factors. Some confining models for HSC with high-strength aseismic transverse reinforcement are introduced. Based on 10 groups of high-strength aseismic stirrup confined high-strength concrete square columns are tested under concentric compression, the influence of stirrup in binding strength and the ductility of concrete columns on different stirrup strength, different volume ratio of reinforcement, different stirrups type and different stirrup spacing form is studied by using finite element software ABAQUS. The results indicate that a good agreement is obtained between calculated results and experimental ones. The high-strength stirrup confined concrete columns can improve the bearing capacity and deformation performance of components effectively, laying the foundation of the applications of high-strength stirrups in concrete structures.

In high–strength concrete, the reinforcement concentration will cause some problems in the beam–column joints (BCJs) due to a large amount of transverse reinforcement. Hence, the main object of this paper is to prevent the reinforcement concentration and reduce the amount of transverse reinforcement in the BCJs through the ideal usage of steel fibers and reinforced high–strength concrete. Pseudo–static tests on seven specimens were carried out to investigate and evaluate the seismic performance of beam–column joints in steel fiber reinforced high–strength concrete (SFRHC). Test variables were steel fiber volume ratio, concrete strength, the stirrup ratio in the core area, and an axial compression ratio of the column end. During the test, the hysteresis curves and failure mode were recorded. The seismic indicators, such as energy dissipation, ductility, strength, and stiffness degradation, were determined. The experimental results indicated that the failure modes of SFRHC beam–column joints mainly included the core area failure and the beam end bending failure. With the increase in stirrup ratio, volume ratio of steel fiber, and axial compression ratio in the core area, both the ductility and energy consumption of beam–column joints increased, while the opposite was true for concrete strength.

For expedite the development of high titanium heavy slag concrete, eight high titanium heavy slag high strength reinforced concrete (HTHS-HSRC) scale model column are studied. The eight HTHS-HSRC model columns are tested under reversed horizontal force. Primary experimental parameters include axial load ratio varying from 0.3 to 0.5, volumetric ratios of transverse reinforcement ranging from 1.38% to 1.56%, strength of high titanium heavy slag high strength concrete varying from 55.9 to 61.6 N/mm2 and configurations of transverse reinforcement. It is found from the test result that HTHS-HSRC model columns provides comparable seismic performance to those usually used reinforced concrete column in terms of member ductility, hysteretic and energy dissipation capacity. Primary Factors of Displacement Ductility of Model Columns are also discussed.
