3　specimens　of　full-scale　reinforced　concrete　columns　were　tested　under　monotonic　axial　loading,　in　which　the　hoop　configuration　of　one　specimen　was　#,　and　the　other　two　used　the　two-directional　composite　spiral　hoops.　The　axial　compressive　performances　of　full-scale　reinforced　concrete　columns　confined　by　different　configurations　and　strengths　of　hoops　were　discussed.　One　of　the　columns　confined　by　spiral　hoops　used　high-strength　steels　with　the　yield　strength　of　1000MPa　as　hoops,　while　the　other　two　columns　used　ordinary-strength　steel　with　yield　strength　of　400MPa.　Columns　confined　by　spiral　hoops　exhibited　slight　higher　bearing　capacity　and　better　deformation　ability　than　columns　with　hoop　configuration　#.　The　results　also　indicated　that　compared　with　the　specimen　used　ordinary-strength　hoops,　the　bearing　capacity　of　the　specimen　used　high-strength　hoops　was　basically　the　same,　but　the　deformation　ability　improved　obviously.
