The determination of mechanical properties for different building materials is a highly relevant and practical field application machine learning (ML) techniques within the construction sector. When working with vibrocentrifuged concrete products structures, it crucial to consider factors related impact aggressive environments. Artificial intelligence methods can enhance prediction through use specialized algorithms materials’ strength determination. aim this article establish evaluate algorithms, specifically Linear Regression (LR), Support Vector (SVR), Random Forest (RF), CatBoost (CB), compressive in under diverse operational conditions. This achieved by utilizing comprehensive database experimental values obtained laboratory settings. following metrics were used analyze accuracy constructed regression models: Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Squared (MSE), Root-Mean-Square (RMSE), Percentage (MAPE) coefficient (R2). average MAPE range from 2% (RF, CB) 7% (LR, SVR) allowed us draw conclusions about possibility using “smart” development compositions quality control concrete, which ultimately entails improvement acceleration manufacture. best model, CatBoost, showed MAE = 0.89, MSE 4.37, RMSE 2.09, R2 0.94.

Ultra-high-performance concrete (UHPC) is a cementitious composite combining high-strength matrix and fiber reinforcement. Standing out for its excellent mechanical properties durability, this material has been widely recognized as viable choice highly complex engineering projects. This paper proposes (i) the review of influence exerted by constituent materials on compressive strength, flexural tensile elastic modulus UHPC (ii) determination optimal quantities based simplified statistical analyses developed database. The data search was restricted to papers that produced with straight steel fibers at content 2% volume. mixture models were proposed graphical relationship versus properties, aiming optimize material’s performance each property. results proved be in accordance specifications present literature, characterized high cement consumption, significant presence fine materials, low water-to-binder ratio. divergences identified between mixtures reflect how uniquely impact property concrete. In general, shown play role increasing strength UHPC, while water superplasticizers stood their workability.

Non-destructive testing (NDT) techniques are crucial in making informed decisions about reconstructing or repairing building structures. The SonReb method, a combination of the rebound hammer (RH) and ultrasonic pulse velocity (UPV) tests, is widely used for this purpose. To evaluate compressive strength, CS, concrete under investigation, Vp index R must be mapped to strength CS using suitable conversion model, identification which requires supplementing NDT measurements with destructive-type (DT) on relatively large number cores. An approach notably indicated all cases where minimization cores essential employ pre-existing i.e., model derived from previous studies conducted literature, appropriately calibrated. In paper, we investigate performance Gaussian process regression (GPR) calibrating models, exploiting their ability handle nonlinearity uncertainties. numerical results obtained experimental data collected literature show that GPR calibration very effective, outperforming, most cases, standard multiplicative additive calibrate models.
