Introduction . The machine learning algorithms are highly promising for predicting the load-bearing capacity of building structures. paper aims at predictive models calculating strength concrete-filled steel tubular (CFST) columns to enable a accurate prediction ultimate loads entire possible range parameters affecting eccentrically compressed columns. Materials and Methods article studies short circular cross-section. Model input parameters: column outer diameter, pipe wall thickness, yield steel, compressive concrete, relative eccentricity. Output without taking into account random eccentricities. were trained on synthetic data generated based theoretical principles limit equilibrium method. Two built. When training first model, determined given eccentricity longitudinal force additional second was taken account. effect features model predictions assessed using Feature Importance function. Optuna method used select hyperparameters. implemented in Jupiter Notebook environment Gradient Boosting total volume sample 179 025 samples. Results importance most values have been determined. For both models, diameter proved be important features, which is consistent with existing experience designing such Optimisation hyperparameters Grid Search enabled getting improved results. high accuracy has ascertained by low regression metrics: MSE = 9.024; MAE 9.250; MAPE 0.004 — built eccentricity; 8.673; Discussion Conclusion developed cross-section, eccentricities, demonstrated stability prediction, they can applied assessing during design construction, will reduce time resources involved physical testing. In future, it planned expand including other materials, different cross-section geometries slenderness parameter, may improve generalization ability model.
