Abstract

The concrete compressive strength (CS) is an important parameter used for durability design and service life prediction of concrete structures in civil engineering projects. It usually has a high nonlinear relationship with the age and main components of concrete, which makes it difficult for traditional regression analysis methods to perform predictive modelling. This study presents a data-driven Kriging model for predicting concrete CS under standard curing period. Two popular machine learning algorithms, namely Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Support Vector Regression (SVR), are used for comparisons to validate the predictive ability of Kriging model. In addition, a parameter correlation analysis is implemented to reveal the intrinsic association of the selected seven main components of concrete and concrete CS. This study led to the following conclusions: (1) compared with ANN and SVR, the data-driven Kriging model has the highest accuracy in predicting concrete CS, and (2) the results of the parameter correlation analysis coincide with the physical laws of concrete CS.
