The low cyclic lateral loading tests were conducted on four basalt fiber reinforced plastic(BFRP)confined circular columns and two unconfined columns. The mechanical behavior and mechanism of specimens were investigated, and the influences on the deformation performance were analyzed by the parameters of shear span ratio, axial compression ratio and confining method. Nonlinear finite element analysis of the specimens was carried out by ABAQUS software, and the feasibility of models was verified. Then, the influences of BFRP layer, longitudinal reinforcement ratio and stirrup ratio on the seismic deformation capacity of columns were studied. Results show that with the reduction of shear span ratio and increment of axial compression ratio, the ductility of confined columns drops significantly, and the BFRP has the best effect on improving the deformation capacity of the columns reinforced with low shear-span ratio. With the same amount of BFRP, the seismic behavior of all wrapped columns is slightly better than that of partial wrapped columns. Moreover, the column deformation capacity is improved with the increase of BFRP layer, but the BFRP confinement is not obvious with more than four layers. When the longitudinal reinforcement ratio of columns reaches 3.2%, the ductility trend changes from rise to drop, while increasing the stirrup ratio can significantly improve the ultimate displacement of reinforced columns.
