The integration of machine learning (ML) techniques into industrial and manufacturing applications has seen great growth in recent years. Various numerical and analytical models have been proposed, based either on experimental results or simulation results, and have helped to understand phenomena that take place during the life cycle of a material. In this direction, a large experimental data set to determine the compressive strength of fiber reinforced polymer (FRP) confined concrete specimens has been used as a basis in this work.  \nThe obtained measurements are correlated with the mechanical and structural properties of the material and fed into a ML model. The model is trained on the experimental values and can provide predictions for conditions within or outside the value range of the input data. Various ML algorithms are implemented and studied for their prediction accuracy, and the results show that ML can be an important computational tool, which can act as a complement to expensive experiments or time-consuming simulations in engineering sciences.  \nKeywords: Machine Learning, Data Science, Confined Concrete, Compressive Strength, FRP.  \n1 General  \nProperty extraction in materials science has seen a significant shift in the last decade towards the adoption of techniques based on data science. The large amount of experimental data generated and stored in various databases has enabled scientists and engineers to incorporate this information into innovative statistical techniques and methods. This integration aims to propose new methodologies and materials with enhanced properties, which is especially crucial for technological and scientific advancement. The majority of data-driven methods are based on concepts from artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) .  \nThe term ML refers to the implementation of a computational model of complex non-linear data-driven relationships and AI is the framework for decision-making and actions based on ML [1] .
