The　self-centering　double-column　rocking　piers　have　been　getting　a　lot　of　attention　due　to　the　good　self-centering　capacity　and　minor　damage　after　severe　earthquake.　However,　most　previous　studies　on　the　seismic　performance　of　the　rocking　piers　tend　to　ignores　the　effect　of　soil-structure　interaction　(SSI).　It　is　unclear　that　the　dynamic　responses　of　rocking　piers　considering　SSI.　In　this　study,　the　seismic　behaviour　of　the　self-centering　double-column　rocking　pier　with　angles　steel　(SCRP-A)　with　the　effect　of　SSI　under　near-fault　pulse　ground　motions　is　investigated.　To　this　end,　a　three-dimensional　(3D)　complete　finite　element　model　(FEM)　of　pile-soil-rocking　piers　considering　SSI　is　established　and　analyzed.　For　comparison,　a　conventional　reinforced　concrete　double-column　pier　(RCP)　and　a　self-centering　double-column　rocking　pier　(SCRP)　are　also　considered.　The　analysis　results　indicate　that　the　SCRP-A　with　SSI　under　near-fault　pulse　excitations　shows　the　best　seismic　performance　with　excellent　self-resetting　ability　and　small　damage　after　the　earthquakes,　compared　with　RCP　and　SCRP.　©　Geology　Resource　Management　and　Sustainable　Development　2022.All　rights　reserved.
