Based　on　the　experimental　results　of　16　reinforced　concrete　(RC)　columns　strengthened　with　prestressed　high　strength　steel　wire　mesh　(PSWM)　and　2　comparative　RC　columns　under　cyclic　loadings　and　constant　axial　loading,　the　research　of　the　restoring　force　model　of　RC　columns　strengthened　with　PSWM　was　carried　out.　According　to　the　relevant　experimental　research,　the　materials＇　stress-strain　relationships　were　determined;　the　stress-strain　relationship　equations　of　the　reinforced　concrete　confined　and　strengthened　with　PSWM　under　axial　loading　were　established.　Considering　the　axial　force　of　secondary　moment　effect,　the　calculation　method　of　skeleton　curves　of　the　strengthened　RC　columns　was　presented.　The　restoring　force　model　was　established　with　Clough　hysteresis　rules.　The　research　demonstrates　that:　by　choosing　the　suitable　material　constitutive　relationships　and　assumptions,　and　based　on　the　force　balance　equations　and　existing　simple　hysteresis　rules,　the　skeleton　and　hysteresis　curves　that　agree　well　with　the　experimental　results　can　be　obtained.　The　restoring　force　model　is　simple,　applicable　and　can　be　used　to　design　and　construction　of　RC　columns　strengthened　with　PSWM.
