A database is created using the test results (42 tests) conducted by the authors of current paper as well as the previous studies available in the literature. A symbolic regression based empirical formulation is proposed using this database. The formulation is unique in a way that it has the capability to predict the shear strength of both SFRC and GFRC corbels. The performance of proposed model is tested against randomly selected testing set. Additionally, a parametric study with a wide range of variables is carried out to test the effect of each parameter on the shear strength. The results confirm the high prediction capacity of proposed model.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessSymbolic RegressionReinforced Concrete CorbelFiber Reinforced ConcreteShear StrengthGlass FiberSteel FiberArticle751Q16520WOS:000407217900008Q1
