description A new type of precast pile, namely steel strand square piles with reinforcement (PRS), is proposed in present study, which uses steel strand as a prestressed reinforcement and is equipped with hot-rolled reinforcement. Two kinds of full-scale pile specimens with different reinforcement were constructed to study the bending performance by the full-scale tests. The finite element model was also performed to study the differences in bending resistance, deformation capacity, crack resistance, and failure mode because of the reinforcement ratio. The results show that the steel strand in the pile was not pulled off, and the concrete in the compression zone was crushed. The finite element analysis results are close to the results of the full-scale test of the piles, which can simulate the flexural performance of the pile well. The experimental results were closer to the theoretical calculation of the cracking moment. The ultimate bending moment value is about 25% more than the theoretical value. The parametric analysis shows that for the PRS with 0.27% prestressed reinforcement, the best bending performance is achieved with 0.64% non-prestressed reinforcement. For the PRS with 0.64% of non-prestressed reinforcement, the best bending performance is achieved with 0.37% of prestressed reinforcement.
