Mechanical and hydraulic performance of pervious concrete pavements: experimental evaluation

Experimental Study on Mechanical and Hydrological Properties of Pervious Concrete with Different Water Cement Ratio

The aim of this research was to study the effect of various water-to-cement ratio on the properties of pervious concrete. Tests were carried out to find the optimum water-to-cement ratio that gives a high compressive strength with acceptable permeability. The tests of fresh density, compressive strength at 7days, porosity and water permeability for four mixes of pervious concrete with various w...

Recycling waste latex paint in overlays, rigid pavements, and pervious concrete

Ultrasonic Tomography Technique for Evaluation Concrete Pavements

Ultrasonic tomography is an emerging technology that shows promise for quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) during construction, or for making rehabilitation decisions in concrete pavements. However, the benefits of this emerging technology have not yet been fully captured for widespread use in highway infrastructure management. Verification of a state-of-the-art ultrasonic tomography devi...

Finite Element Evaluation of Pervious Concrete Pavement for Roadway Shoulders

Stormwater quantity control is an important issue that needs to be addressed in roadway and ancillary transportation facility design. Pervious concrete has provided an effective solution for storm runoff for parking lots, sidewalks, bike trails, and other applications. It should be readily adaptable for use on roadway shoulders. Being a relatively new material for use in pavement for roadways, ...
