Resumen:This study proposes a machine learning (ML) framework to predict the progressive collapse resistance of purely welded steel frames considering weld defects. A finite element model (FEM) incorporating weld weakening degree at joints was developed and validated against push-down tests. A parametric modelling program, combined with Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS), was used to generate 700 samples from 27 design features across 8 categories, establishing a progressive collapse database containing full-process resistance curves. Five ML algorithms—DNN, SVR, RF, XGBoost, and LightGBM—were trained and evaluated. SVR was identified as the optimal model through Bayesian hyperparameter optimization and K-fold cross-validation, achieving an R2 = 0.988 and sMAPE = 5.096% in predicting the full-process resistance response. SHAP analysis was employed to examine feature interpretations both locally and globally, revealing that the failure scenario, beam span-to-height ratio, and weld quality are the three most significant factors affecting structural resistance, accounting for 22.6%, 22.5%, and 16% of the overall influence, respectively. For practical design, a steel frame with a beam span-to-height ratio of approximately 15, a weld joint relative position ratio between 0.15 and 0.18, a circular stub diameter-to-beam width ratio around 1.8, and a stub diameter-to-thickness ratio near 13 can achieve superior progressive collapse robustness, provided that weld quality is ensured.
