The novel structure of a basalt fiber reinforced polymer (BFRP)-confined ceramsite concrete column (BFCCC) reinforced with bamboo strips (BSs) was investigated. The characteristics of light weight, BSs and FRP reinforcement were reflected in the structure. Thirty-six BFCCCs and 18 unconfined ceramsite concrete columns were fabricated and subjected to axial compression tests, and the stress–strain curves were obtained. The research parameters included the number of BFRP layers and the volume content of BSs. Both types of specimens, with and without BFRP confinement, underwent brittle failure after reaching the ultimate bearing capacity. The increase in the number of BFRP layers had a positive effect on the bearing capacity and deformation capacity of the specimens. With the increase in the number of BFRP layers, the compressive strengths of BFCCCs were improved by 1.17–1.44 times, and the deformations were improved by 6.30–12.92 times, compared to the unconfined concrete. The addition of BSs could improve the ductility of the specimen, while the effect on the bearing capacity had an optimal value of 2.0%. The stress–strain curves of the BFCCCs showed obvious softening behavior after the peak point. Models were proposed to predict the axial stress–strain curves of BFCCCs reinforced with BSs.
