1. Introduction

Ensuring durability and quality in river training works depends on a proper treatment of steel-concrete composite columns. The methodology coupled genetic algorithm with statistical analysis to quantify the associated uncertainty. The optimised configuration outperformed the conventional design by roughly 52% in the experiments. The demonstrated performance gains clearly justify the additional effort required for practical implementation.
