In　this　study,we　investigated　the　seismic　and　resilience　behaviors　and　damage　controllability　of　steel-tube-reinforced　high-strength　concrete　columns　with　different　grades　of　high-strength　steel　bars.　We　conducted　cyclic　loading　tests　on　three　tube-reinforced　high-strength　concrete　columns　with　a　cross-section　size　of　600mm×600mm　at　a　high　axial　force　ratio.　The　steel　bars　used　in　the　test　specimens　were　HRB600　high-strength　and　1200MPa　ultra-high-strength　steel　bars.　The　ultra-high-strength　longitudinal　reinforcement　configuration　ratio　and　the　stirrup　spacing　were　the　major　variations　in　the　design　parameters　of　the　test　specimens.　Based　on　the　test　results,we　determined　the　failure　mode,hysteretic　behavior,bearing　capacity,deformation　capacity,stiffness　degradation,energy　dissipation　capacity,and　post-earthquake　resilience　behavior　of　each　specimen.　The　results　revealed　that　the　steel-tube-reinforced　high-strength　concrete　columns　with　the　high-strength　steel　bars　exhibited　bending　failure　under　cyclic　loading.　Increasing　the　ratio　of　the　ultra-high-strength　steel　bars　used　in　the　longitudinal　reinforcement　could　improve　the　ductility　of　the　steel-tube-reinforced　high-strength　concrete　columns　and　reduce　the　degree　of　damage　after　earthquake.　Reducing　the　spacing　of　the　stirrups　could　improve　the　seismic-energy-dissipation　capacity　of　the　steel-tube-reinforced　high-strength　concrete　columns　and　also　improve　the　ultimate　deformation　capacity,reduce　the　stiffness　degradation　rate,and　suppress　the　development　of　concrete　cracks.　We　provide　a　simplified　method　for　calculating　the　bearing　capacity　of　the　steel-tube-reinforced　high-strength　concrete　columns,the　results　of　which　show　good　agreement　with　the　test　results.　©　2021,　Editorial　Board　of　Journal　of　Tianjin　University(Science　and　Technology).　All　right　reserved.
