Abstract

Many researchers have studied the various properties of selfcompacting concrete (SCC) with the addition of several types of powders, utilizing both traditional and statistical (mathematical) methods. The novelty of our research is to use the response surface methodology (RSM) to develop a mathematical model that forecasts and simulates the performance of the Flexural Strength tests of self-compacting concrete, Contains a quantity of marble and glass powders. The response surface methodology was utilized to create models for processes that encompassed three variables: the water-tobinder ratio, as well as the proportions of waste marble and glass powder. This methodology was utilized to gather a substantial amount of data and acquire the essential predictions for comprehending the studied phenomenon. Flexural strength tests were analyzed at intervals of 7, 28, and 90 days. Results indicate that the models employed in the flexural strength tests showed high statistical significance for 7 and 28 days (p-value < 0.01), and for 90 days, the models exhibit statistical significance (p-value < 0.05). The analysis of coefficients through the RSM approach validates its effectiveness as a predictive tool for evaluating the flexural strength tests of self-compacting concrete.
