Limestone and slag blended concrete is an innovative concrete which belongs to the family of limestone calcined clay cement (LC3) concrete. Strength is an important property of structural concrete. This study shows artificial neural networks (ANN) and gene expression programming (GEP) models for predicting strength development of limestone and slag blended concrete. ANN model consists of an input layer, a hidden layer, and output layer. GEP model consists of the sum of three expression trees. The input parameters of ANN and GEP models are mixtures and ages. The output parameter is a strength. The correlation coefficients of ANN and GEP model are 0.99 and 0.98, respectively. Both ANN and GEP model can produce prediction results of the strength of ternary blended concrete reliably.
