# BOxCrete: Bayesian Optimization for Sustainable Concrete Mix Design
22

3-
Concrete, the second most widely used material in the world, accounts for **6–8% of global anthropogenic CO₂ emissions**, largely due to Portland cement production (~0.8 tons CO₂ per ton of cement). Partial replacement with Supplementary Cementitious Materials (SCMs) such as fly ash, slag, and natural pozzolan reduces embodied carbon and often improves durability, but high SCM usage makes compressive strength a highly nonlinear function of multiple interacting mix parameters, rendering traditional design empirical and trial-and-error driven. To systematically navigate this complex composition space, data-driven frameworks are needed.
4-
Here, we introduce BOxCrete, an open-source Bayesian optimization framework for probabilistic strength curve prediction and sustainable mix design.

We invite researchers and practitioners of both machine learning and civil engineering
