To achieve smart and sustainable construction goals, machine learning (ML) techniques can serve as a cost-effective and efficient substitute for labour-intensive, laboratory, or in situ approaches in parameter estimation essential for infrastructure design. Of these, soil's shear strength parameters, notably cohesion (c) and friction angle (φ), typically govern the design of geo-structures. For quick and cost-effective estimation of these parameters, the earlier studies proposed ML-based predictive models that were less practical and accurate or consider an excessive number of input variables. To minimize these limitations, our study proposes new models of c and φ using gene expression programming (GEP) based on readily available soil attributes such as sand content (S), depth (D), specific gravity (Gs), liquid limit (LL), plastic limit (PL), and fine content (FC). The newly proposed models show excellent accuracy as the values of R2, RMSE (root mean square error), MAE (mean absolute error), RSE (relative standard error) for c-predictive model were 0.984, 1.13, 0.878, 0.017, respectively, and were 0.927, 1.123, 0.922, 0.072, respectively, for φ-predictive model. Through sensitivity analysis, FC and LL emerged as the most critical parameters influencing c, while Gs and PL proved sensitive for determining φ. In comparison with existing models, the c-predictive model displays R2 enhancements of 11.84–45.87% and RMSE improvements of 65.9–92.03%, while the φ-predictive model showcases R2 gains of 13.16–23.75% and RMSE improvements of 58.79–69.29%. By integrating predictive prowess with sustainable and smart construction principles, our study plots a realistic course for efficient geo-structural design. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
