A total of 214 cases are gathered from pertinent literature. The data used in developing the artificial neural network model are arranged in a format of nine inputs which are: cement type, cement content,water to cement ratio, fine and coarse aggregate contents, mineral admixture type and content, type and concentration of sulfate salt, and exposure time ER -
