Based on experimental study of 9 full-scale high-strength concrete(HSC) rectangular frame columns with high axial compression ratios, high-strength longitudinal reinforcements and transverse reinforcements and rectangular interlocking ties, their strain change rules of longitudinal reinforcement, stirrups and concrete were discussed and analyzed. The main results indicate as follows. The maximum tensile strain of longitudinal reinforcement decrease and the tensile strain of concrete increase quickly as the axial compression ratios and the strength grades of concrete are higher; the strains of outer stirrups are all the time greater than those of inner stirrups; the single brace stirrups have the same action with the closed stirrups.

In order to simulate the seismic behaviour of the prestressed high-strength concrete piles under working state, six full-scale prestressed high-strength concrete piles were tested under combined axial compression and cyclic horizontal loads. Different axial compression levels and prestressing levels of prestressed tendons were studied in this test programme. The failure mode, bending resistance, displacement ductility, stiffness degradation and energy dissipation of the prestressed high-strength concrete piles under different loading scenarios were measured and analysed. Test results indicated that the axial compression ratio and prestressing level of prestressed tendon significantly influenced the seismic performance of prestressed high-strength concrete piles. Theoretical models were developed to predict cracking, yielding and ultimate bending resistances of the prestressed high-strength concrete pile under combined compression and bending. Finite element model was also developed to simulate the ultimate strength behaviour of the prestressed high-strength concrete pile under combined compression and flexural bending. The accuracies of the theoretical and finite element model were checked through validations of their predictions against the reported test results.

Based on experimental research on plain concrete columns with high strength concrete core, the formula to predict the bearing capacity of concrete columns with high strength concrete core under axial compression loading was brought forward in previous paper, in order to verify the formula whether right, axial compression test including 3 concrete columns with high strength concrete core and 1 ordinary reinforced concrete column were completed, and the failure characteristic was analyzed additionally. According to experimental results, it can be shown that the failure modes of concrete columns with high strength concrete core are similar to that of ordinary reinforced concrete columns, however, the bearing capacity of concrete columns with high strength concrete core is significant higher compared with that of ordinary reinforced concrete column; the results of the bearing capacity obtained by the formula (2) was in good agreement with the experimental results.

In this paper, the seismic behavior of fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) strengthened and unstrengthened steel fiber-reinforced high-strength concrete frame joints under low cyclic loading was tested. Then, the nonlinear finite element program was used to simulate the seismic behavior of FRP strengthened and unstrengthened steel fiber-reinforced high-strength concrete frame joints under low cyclic repeated load. The influence of FRP bond direction on the seismic behavior of steel fiber-reinforced high-strength concrete frame joints was studied. Through the comparison of the test values and numerical simulation values of the hysteretic curve, skeleton curve, energy dissipation capacity, displacement ductility, bearing capacity degradation, stiffness degradation, and other performance indexes of frame joints, the rule was obtained. The results showed that the 45° bonding direction of carbon fiber cloth is better than the 0° bonding direction, and the digital simulation results are in good agreement with the test results. Therefore, the constitutive model, element, end constraint, and loading method used in the finite element numerical simulation of this paper were reasonable, which can provide reference for the similar research in the future.
