Circular rubber aggregate CFST stub columns under axial compression: prediction and reliability analysis.

ABSTRACT: Extensive studies support using steel tubes to enhance the structural integrity of rubber aggregate concrete (RBAC), namely RBAC-filled steel tubes (RCFST). However, current design codes for assessing the axial compressive behaviour of circular stub RCFST (CS-RCFST) columns are limited. Furthermore, there is a scarcity of studies focused on ensuring the structural safety of these columns. Based on an extensive experimental database comprising 145 columns, this study explores machine learning (ML) capabilities for predicting the axial strength of CS-RCFST columns, using six typical machine-learning models, i.e., symbolic regression (SR), XGBoost, CatBoost, random forest, LightGBM, and Gaussian process regression models. The hyperparameter tuning of the introduced ML models is performed usin
