This　paper　studies　the　influence　of　various　parameters,　such　as　alloy　types　and　slenderness　ratios,　on　the　hysteretic　behavior　of　compression　aluminium　members　under　cyclic　axial　loading.　In　this　research,　a　method　by　finite　element　analysis　was　proposed.　The　method　was　based　on　FEA　software,　ANSYS.　The　effects　of　material　nonlinearity,　geometrical　nonlinearity　and　initial　imperfection　were　considered　in　this　analysis　model.　By　comparing　the　hysteretic　curves,　reversal　skeleton　curves　and　stiffness　degradation　curves　of　aluminium　columns　obtained　by　the　model,　it　concludes　that,　for　the　same　slenderness　ratio,　the　hysteretic　behavior　of　6061-T6　aluminium　columns　were　better　than　6061-T4.　For　the　same　alloy　type,　the　specimen　which　has　smaller　slenderness　ratio　has　the　superior　performance　under　cyclic　loading.
