Description
Summary:Poor frost resistance of concrete will accelerate the deterioration of concrete structure and shorten the service life of concrete. This paper predicts the frost resistance of concrete and selects the initial index of factors that affect the frost resistance of concrete. The random forest algorithm is introduced to remove the unimportant indicators in the initial indicator system of the concrete mix ratio and determine the optimal indicator combination. The relative dynamic elastic modulus is used as the output index of random forest to predict the frost resistance of concrete. The proposed random forest model provides a reasonable and effective method for concrete frost resistance prediction.
