To study the axial compressive and seismic behavior of the Dou-Gong bracket at the corner, two models of the full-scaled Dou-Gong brackets at the corner were tested under axial compression and quasi-static horizontal load, respectively. The failure mode, load-displacement curve, hysteresis and skeleton curve, stiffness and bearing capacity degradation, energy dissipation capacity and displacement ductility ratio of the Dou-Gong brackets at the corner were obtained. The results show that under the action of axial load, the Da-Dou is crushed, the Xie-Qiao and Zhengxingua-Gong with Dajiaozheng-Qiao are cracked. The load-displacement curve has obvious compaction, elastic, plastic and strengthening sections with significant stiffness degradation and large residual deformation.Under the action of horizontal load, the Da-Dou is crushed and split, the Mantou-tenon is squeezed and sheared, the Pingban-Fang is embedded, and the dowels of the Tiaoyan-Fang are pulled out. The hysteresis and skeleton curves of the Dou-Gong bracket in the positive and negative directions are asymmetric. The stiffness and bearing capacity degrade seriously, while the energy dissipation and deformation capacity are higher. The numerical model under the action of axial load and horizontal load was established, respectively. The effects of wood properties and friction coefficients on the axial compressive and seismic behavior of the Dou-Gong bracket were analyzed based on the verified model. The parametric analysis shows that with the increase of the compressive strength along the grain and friction coefficients, the initial stiffness of the Dou-Gong bracket remains unchanged, while the bearing capacity increases significantly.The radial elastic modulus of the transverse grain has little influence on the initial stiffness and bearing capacity of the Dou-Gong bracket.
