To study the complete stress-strain curve of stirrup confined recycled concrete under uniaxial loading, we tested on nine circular column specimens of recycled concrete which have a diameter of 500 mm and a height of 1 500 mm. In this test,we used a servo-hydraulic test machine with a capacity of 20 000 kN for displacement and loading control. The main test parameters are longitudinal reinforcement ratio, the spacing and diameter of stirrup, and applied strain rate. The results show that the spacing of stirrup and stirrup ratio have great influence on the ductility of specimens. The peak stress of specimen increases 114% when the applied strain rate increases from 0.000003/s to 0.0033/s. The complete stress-strain curve of recycled concrete is similar to that of normal concrete but the descending branch is stiffer than that of normal concrete, which means that the recycled concrete is more brittle than normal concrete.
