Summary One of the most important connections in steel structures is column to the baseplate connection. This kind of connection has a complex nature, due to different behaviors of the constituents, including baseplate, grout, foundation, and anchor bolts. Studying the impact of this connection in general behavior of structure seems to be an essential issue, especially during earthquake, which is more likely to be associated with plastic hinge forming. The main goal of this work is to provide a hybrid modeling for describing hysteresis behavior of column to the baseplate connection. Within hybrid modeling, a mechanical model is accomplished by using neural network model components. Our findings reveal that hybrid models are able to show pinched hysteresis complex behavior of baseplate connections. Also, the proposed hybrid developed model is robust and reliable approaches for predicting behaviors of a recent designed connection.
