Abstract: In order to analyze the mechanical behavior of Chinese traditional style structure with lintel-column joint of steel and composite structures, in the report, two specimens were tested under dynamic experimental, the failure characteristics and seismic behavior of the specimen were analyzed, which including the load-displacement hysteretic loops, skeleton curves, load carrying capacity, ductility performance. The results indicated that the Chinese traditional style architecture with steel-concrete composite structure has good seismic performances. The loading capacity of dual lintel-column joint was about 1.47 time more than that of the lintel-column joints. And the hysteretic loops of the latter was in plump-shape. However, the displacement ductility coefficient of latter was approximately 16.7% lower than that of the former. The both of crack characteristic point value were less than the difference. Based on the results,ABAQUS was performed to construct the 3D nonlinear finite element models for analyzing the mechanical properties of the structure. The analysis parameters included the axial compression ratio, concrete strength, yield strength of square steel tube. The results showed that the axial compression ratio affects the bearing capacity of specimen significantly. In general, with the increase of concrete strength, the bearing capacity of specimen was increased, when the axial compression ratio was high, the increment was dramatically, when the axial compression ratio was low, the increment was not obvious. With the increase of tube yield strength, the bearing capacity of specimen was increased, when the axial compression ratio was high, the increment was dramatically, when the axial compression ratio was low, the increment was not obvious. The findings can be used as reference to the application of Chinese traditional style architecture in practical engineering.
