Forecasting maximum formwork pressure for self-compacting concrete using ARX-Laguerre machine learning model

• Forecasting the maximum pressure exerted by cast-in-place self-compacting concrete (SCC) is a major concern for formwork designers, researchers, and site engineers to accurately design the bearing capacity of the formwork and control the casting rate for safe and fast construction. This article aims to utilize the ARX-Laguerre model, which is a data-driven model to forecast the maximum form pressure. A laboratory instrumented setup was used to cast a 2-m column using SCC made with two different types of cement. A pressure system consisting of four sensors was used to document the pressure during casting. The data were sent to the cloud at every 1-min interval for real-time monitoring. The data were used to develop the model. The results demonstrated that forecasting with the ARX-Laguerre model is highly accurate. The model can forecast the maximum pressure exerted by SCC with less complexity. The model performance was also found to be consistent with insignificant differences between actual experimental results and predicted results. With a recursive and straightforward representation, the resulting model, known as the ARX-Laguerre model, ensures the parameter number reduction. Providing fast prediction of the maximum pressure. The model enables formwork designers to forecast the form pressure to design safe formwork and also helps to control the casting rate when SCC is used.
