Pervious concrete differs from the conventional concrete since it usually contains no or smaller amount of fine aggregate. Pervious concrete also called porous concrete, permeable concrete is a special type of concrete with a high porosity which allows water from precipitation and other sources to pass directly through, thereby reducing the runoff and allowing groundwater recharge. Pervious concrete is made using large aggregates with little to no fine aggregates. The concrete paste then coats the aggregates and allows water to pass through the gap between coarse aggregates. Pervious concrete is traditionally used in parking areas, areas with light traffic, residential streets, pedestrian walkways, and greenhouse. When pervious concrete is used for paving, the open cell structures allow storm water to filter through the pavement and into the underlying soils. This pavement technology creates more efficient land use by eliminating the need for retention ponds, swell, and other costly storm water management devices. Generally, it has low strength and very good permeability. It is an important application for sustainable construction and is one of many low impact development techniques used by builders to protect water quality. Pervious concrete pavement is a unique and effective means to meet growing environmental demands. It is instrumental in recharging groundwater and in reducing storm water runoff. This paper reviews the research developments in pervious concrete.
