Abstract

Pervious concrete is also known as porous, gap graded, permeable or porosity concrete. Comparing with nominal concrete, the pervious concrete has little or no fine aggregate. In Pervious concrete the fine aggregate percentage is taken as 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% by weight of fine aggregate in nominal concrete mix i.e the mix design is based on IS 10262:2009.The above pervious concrete cubes are tested for a compressive strength of 3, 7, 14, 28days of curing for above percentage of fine aggregates and compared with nominal concrete mix. Permeability of the pervious concrete for the above percentages of fine aggregate will be found out at 28 days by using falling head permeability test.
