An Experimental Study on Pervious Concrete with respect to its Strength

Different properties of pervious concrete are investigated in this research work using porosity, compressive strength and density. The effect of admixture is studied for pervious concrete. Conclusions are made from observations and results of concrete cubes. The results imply that pervious concrete is a sustainable substitute for pavement uses since it can reach sufficient strength and guarantees permeability. The study emphasizes how different compressive strength, porosity and density depends on material composition, so supporting environmentally friendly building method. Key Words: Pervious concrete, compressive strength, porosity, density, admixture
