Physical and Hydraulic Properties of Porous Concrete

The work presented includes a review of the state art porous concrete. Its purpose is to evaluate potential use concrete in constructions where level surface runoff justifies it. A literature here has been necessary parameters special consideration have defined dosage permeable mixtures. study definition terms its main components: cement, coarse aggregate, water, additives, and sand, little or no quantity, cause generation an effective content interconnected voids that allow rapid storm drainage. Given reports variables high incidence mechanical behavior (resistance/permeability relationship), investigation warranted synthesize effects preparation mixture: water–cement ratio, granulometry, morphology aggregates, compaction pressure, curing techniques, among others. Likewise, protocols for characterization additional aspects relevant support experimental phase are exposed, constituting reference anchor point developing technologies associated with manufacture this material possibilities implementation constructions.
