Abstract

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.
