In order to study the mechanical behavior of reinforced concrete columns strengthened with high ductile concrete (HDC), eight reinforced concrete columns were designed and strengthened with HDC jacket and high performance composite mortar jacket. The failure modes, deformation capacity and energy dissipation capacity of the specimens were studied by low cyclic loading tests. The test results show that HDC jacket could provide good constraining at the core concrete. The failure mode is changed from brittle failure to ductile failure, and the bearing capacity, ductility and energy dissipation capacity of the strengthened columns are significantly improved after strengthening. The good synergic work performance between HDC jacket and concrete could take advantage of the high damage tolerance capacity of HDC, and the HDC jacket is much more effective than the mesh reinforced high performance composite mortar in behavior enhancement of the columns. Configuring mesh reinforcements in the HDC jacket could improve the constraining effect of the jacket on the inner concrete, and further improve the ductility and energy dissipation capacity of the strengthened columns, but contribute little to the bearing capacity of the strengthened columns. Using HDC jacket to strengthen concrete columns could reduce the damage degree of the vertical components and improve the seismic behavior of the components. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
