Abstract
The seismic behavior of concrete-filled circular steel bridge piers was studied by testing four large scale models which were subjected to a constant axial load in addition to a cyclic lateral load. It was found that concrete-filled circular steel bridge piers had high ductility and energy dissipation capacity. Based on the hysteretic force-displacement, the hysteretic behavior of strength reduction was analyzed. Based on the axial strain and the circumferential strain, the plastic area and the strain feature of steel tube were analyzed. According to two different constitutive models of concrete-filled steel tube, the skeleton curve of moment-curvature and force-displacement were calculated and compared with testing data.
