Automated structural design methods for reinforced concrete (RC) beam members have been widely studied with various techniques to date. Recently, artificial intelligence has been actively applied to various engineering fields. In this study, machine learning (ML) is adopted to make automated structural design model for RC beam members. Among various machine learning methods, a supervised learning was selected. When a supervised learning is applied to development of ML-based prediction model, datasets for training and test are required. Therefore, the datasets for rectangular and t-shaped RC beams was constructed by commercial structural design software of MIDAS. Five supervised learning algorithms, such as Decision Tree (DT), Random Forest (RF), K-Nearest Neighbor (KNN), Artificial Neural Networks (ANN), eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) were used to develop the automated structural design model. Design moment (Mu), design shear force (Vu), beam length, uniform load (wu) were used for inputs of structural design model. Width and height of the designed section, diameter of top and bottom bars, number of top and bottom bars, diameter of stirrup bar were selected for outputs of structural design model. Performance evaluation of the developed structural design models was conducted using metrics sush as root mean square error (RMSE), mean square error (MSE), mean absolute error (MAE), and coefficient of determination (R2). This study presented that random forest provides the best structural design results for both rectangular and t-shaped RC beams. |
