“…The results depicted that the reliability of the ANFIS model was higher, with an R-value of 0.988 compared with other ML models. Amin et al [ 21 ] applied gene expression programming (GEP) to estimate BS in the range of 0.76 to 21 MPa. The R-value of the GEP model was 0.963 and showed sufficient accuracy of the developed model.…”

The bond strength between concrete and corroded steel reinforcement bar is one of the main responsible factors that affect the ultimate load-carrying capacity of reinforced concrete (RC) structures. Therefore, the prediction of accurate bond strength has become an important parameter for the safety measurements of RC structures. However, the analytical models are not enough to estimate the bond strength, as they are built using various assumptions and limited datasets. The machine learning (ML) techniques named artificial neural network (ANN) and support vector machine (SVM) have been used to estimate the bond strength between concrete and corroded steel reinforcement bar. The considered input parameters in this research are the surface area of the specimen, concrete cover, type of reinforcement bars, yield strength of reinforcement bars, concrete compressive strength, diameter of reinforcement bars, bond length, water/cement ratio, and corrosion level of reinforcement bars. These parameters were used to build the ANN and SVM models. The reliability of the developed ANN and SVM models have been compared with twenty analytical models. Moreover, the analyzed results revealed that the precision and efficiency of the ANN and SVM models are higher compared with the analytical models. The radar plot and Taylor diagrams have also been utilized to show the graphical representation of the best-fitted model. The proposed ANN model has the best precision and reliability compared with the SVM model, with a correlation coefficient of 0.99, mean absolute error of 1.091 MPa, and root mean square error of 1.495 MPa. Researchers and designers can apply the developed ANN model to precisely estimate the steel-to-concrete bond strength.
