To　study　the　seismic　performance　of　reinforced　concrete　hollow　piers　and　its　influence　parameters,　nine　rectangular　hollow　piers　with　different　stirrup　ratios,　reinforcement　ratios　and　axial　compression　ratios　were　tested　on　shaking　table.　The　parameters　may　have　effects　on　the　failure　mode,　acceleration　response,　dynamic　amplification　factor,　ductility　and　energy　dissipation　of　the　specimens　are　analyzed.　The　results　indicate　that　there　are　more　cracks　and　the　position　of　cracks　are　farther　from　the　pier　bottom　when　the　axial　compression　ratio　and　stirrup　ratio　become　smaller.　The　acceleration　response,　dynamic　amplification　coefficient　and　displacement　ductility　coefficient　of　specimen　are　increase　but　the　energy　consumption　decrease　with　larger　reinforcement　ratio.　The　axial　compression　ratio　has　the　opposite　effect　compared　with　the　reinforcement　ratio.　The　acceleration　response　and　dynamic　amplification　coefficient　decrease　but　the　displacement　ductility　coefficient　and　energy　consumption　increase　with　the　larger　stirrup　ratio.　The　results　of　this　study　can　be　used　in　seismic　design　of　hollow　piers.　©　2021,　Editorial　Board　of　World　Earthquake　Engineering.　All　right　reserved.
