Abstract
The influence of various seismic parameters on the seismic performance of rectangular reinforced recycled concrete columns was comprehensively revealed through collecting and screening experimental data from 53 rectangular recycled aggregate concrete columns. The research results showed that the bearing capacity of the specimens decreased and the ductility performance increased, which were attributed to the following factors. a. The increase in the replacement ratio and slenderness ratio of recycled coarse aggregate, and b. the reduction in the axial compression ratio and the strength of recycled aggregate concrete. The seismic design limitations and boundary conditions of this study are γ ∈ [0, 100%], n0 ∈ [0, 0.9], λ0 ∈ [5.06, 18.479], λ ∈ [1.09, 3.93], ρsl ∈ [1.01%, 2.45%], ρsv ∈ [1.4%, 5.33%], and f ∈ [C30, C50]. Thus, it is recommended that for the seismic design value of rectangular recycled aggregate concrete columns, the optimal longitudinal reinforcement rate be set at 1.59%.
