No fracture and sealing off occur at the pier head between nonprestressed reinforcement and end plate.
After the nonprestressed reinforcement yielded, the following hysteresis curve is carried out under displacement control; there is no obvious bearing capacity drop in the cycles of the same displacement and the hysteresis loop is plump and stable, so the specimens have good energy dissipation capacity.
