@Article{, title={EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON PROPERTIES OF PERVIOUS CONCRETE PAVEMENT COMPRISING SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS}, author={Nagham Tariq Al-Shafi’i and Shakir Falih Al-Busaltan2 and Ali Adnan Abdulwahid}, journal={Journal of Engineering and Sustainable Development (JEASD) مجلة الهندسة والتنمية المستدامة}, volume={22}, number={2 conference proceedings (Part-5)}, pages={94-107}, year={2018}, abstract={The significant of the porous concrete pavement arises from the fact that it has many applications and advantages specially in filtrate the run water on the pavement surface. In addition, porous concrete offers a vital solution for the noise due to wheel to pavement interaction. So, the aim of this research work is to characterize a porous concrete pavement under local materials and conditions, further to make it more sustainable. This process has been done by three stages, namely: control stage, development stage by silica fume and sustainable stage by Reed Fly Ash. While, three testing methods were conducted to characterize the performance of porous concrete in terms of mechanical and volumetric properties. However, within the scope and materials used, the results showed that the optimum ratios for W/C, C/CA, SF/C, RFA/C are 30%, 20%, 20%, and 8%, respectively. Indeed, such ratios have afforded sustainable porous concrete with satisfactory mechanical strength and acceptable volumetric properties.
