The Use Of Pervious Concrete In Rainwater Management

The primary characteristic of previous concrete is high porosity with interconnected voids between aggregate particles. This permits the use of this specialty concrete as a permeable pavement material. It prevents storm water runoff from causing flooding and erosion downstream. This paper attempts...
