In the area where the temperature changes dramatically, the concrete pavement is affected by high and low temperature for a long time, which changes its internal pore structure and finally leads to the decline of the concrete mechanical properties. Many scholars have studied the relationship between strength and porosity of concrete. Nevertheless, for conclusive findings, a large amount of experimental data is required; otherwise, it is challenging to draw reliable statistical conclusions. For concrete, the properties of raw materials, the production technology, the measuring process of strength and the accuracy of equipment are all uncertain. Multiple uncertainty factors not only contribute to an insufficient amount of experimental data but also inaccuracy. In the current study, in the light of small data samples, the model of total porosity and bending strength of concrete is established based on grey system theory. When compared with other models, it reports a lesser error. By studying the interactions among the pore sizes and the influence on the bending strength, the model is further improved. The average relative error is only 1.63%. The proposed methodology provides an analytical basis for the study of the relationship between pore porosity and bending strength of pavement concrete under temperature fatigue in the area with a large temperature difference. It also provides a specific reference for establishing the relationship model between variables in the case of a small amount of data
