| 520 | |a Pervious concrete (PC) is a cheap and effective drainage system for reducing storm-water runoff in urban centers. This research aim to investigate the influence of different type of aggregate on PC properties. Three PC mixtures were prepared with different aggregate types [Granite, Gravel and Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA)]. Physical and strength characteristics of the aggregates were analyzed. Density, porosity, permeability as well as compressive strength of PC made with these aggregates were measured. Results showed that PC made from RCA has the highest porosity and permeability due to the porous nature of adhered mortar on RCA. However, highest density and compressive strength was obtained from granite PC followed by gravel and then RCA PC. The study concluded that aggregate type has significant influence on PC properties. | ||
