Abstract Porous concrete is an amalgamation of coarse aggregate, Portland cement, and water, which permits rainfall water to permeate through the surface and into the ground before it runs off. Porous concrete encompasses little or no fine aggregates and adequate cementitious fixative to coat the coarse aggregate while keeping the voids interconnected. IRC 44-2017 states that range of permeability for pervious concrete should be from 0.135 cm/second to 1.22 cm/second and array of compressive strength should be 5MPa - 25MPa. In this experimental study, two properties of no fine concrete namely compressive strength and porousness at the curing age of 7th & 28rd days has been targeted. Compressive strength and Infiltration tests were conducted on the pervious concrete of grade M10 and M15 by keeping variation of fine aggregates of 0% - 5%. We observed that fines aggregate help to rise the compressive strength of porous concrete but decrease the permeability. Thus, by careful optimization of the mix, pervious concrete can be obtained for suitable use in low strength load.

In this paper comparative study on the compressive strength and permeability of pervious concrete with and without fine aggregate is done. Sand and LLDPE (Linear low density polythene) with varying percentages are used as fine aggregates. Sand is added in percentages of 5%, 10% and 15% of the coarse aggregate in all the mixes. LLDPE powder is added in the percentage of 5%, 10% and 15% of the coarse aggregate in all the mixes. With the addition of fine aggregate the compressive strength of the pervious concrete increases but permeability reduces. The results show that the pervious concrete with LLDPE powder there is a considerable increase in compressive strength as compared to no-fines mix and mix with sand as fine aggregate. The study recommends the use of eco-friendly pervious concrete with LLDPE powder as an alternative to the existing pavements with low volume traffic.

Pervious concrete or non-fine concrete is a simple form of lightweight concrete made by eliminating the use of fine aggregates. As a result of not using fine aggregate in pervious concrete, then created a cavity filled with air and water can be passed. This cavity resulted in reduced density of the concrete as well as the reduced amount of area that needs to be covered by cement paste, thereby reducing the compressive strength. To increase the compressive strength of pervious concrete, in this study will utilize waste material. The waste material is the cocnut shell ash and coconut shell to strengthen the coarse aggregate bonds, so it is expected to increase the compressive strength along with the increase in permeability. Thus, in this study will replace part of the coarse aggregate with coconut shell with percentage 0%, 2,5%, 5%, 7,5%, 10% and partially replace cement with coconut shell ash with percentage 0%, 2,5%, 5%, 7,5%

In this paper, the conception and classification of Green-growing porous concrete (POC) is introduced. POC is made of single-sized coarse aggregate, Portland cement, admixtures, chemical admixtures, water, et al. It should be properly mixed before cast in mould. Because of its large-pore structure, POC have much ecological and environmental value. In the case of be used as greening concrete which placed in highway side, POC’s compressive strength should be higher than 15MPa, at the same time, its valid porosity content should be at the range of 25% and 30%.

With the increase in the use of recycled aggregate concrete (RAC), it is necessary to clearly understand its behavior and characteristics. In this paper, experimental study on compressive strength of RAC with same water/cement ratio is conducted. Firstly, influence of recycled coarse aggregate contents on cube compressive strength of RAC is studied. Secondly, experiment on time-dependent strength developing process of RAC is conducted with different solidification ages. Finally, based on above experimental investigations, empirical formula for compress strengths of RAC with different ages is presented. The result of this paper is helpful to theoretical analysis and practical engineering design of RAC structures.

Abstract: Pervious concrete is a special type of concrete, which consists of cement, coarse aggregates, water and if required and other cementations materials. As there are no fine aggregates used in the concrete matrix, the void content is more which allows the water to flow through its bodyThe main aim of this project was to improve the compressive strength characteristics of pervious concrete. But it can be noted that with increase in compressive strength the void ratio decreases. Hence, the improvement of strength should not affect the porosity property because it is the property which serves its purpose. In this investigation work the compressive strength of pervious concrete is increased by a maximum of 18.26% for 28 days when 8% fine aggregates were added to standard pervious concrete Keywords: W/C ratio, pervious Concrete, sugarcane bagasse’s ash, rice husk ash compressive strength, fine aggregates

The need for porous concrete has become increased due its ability to control surface water, increase the rate of recharging groundwater, and reduce pollution of the ecosystem. Granite is a coarse aggregate that is quite expensive when compared with gravel in Nigeria. Therefore, this research is aimed at optimizing blended granite and gravel in the production of porous concrete. Samples of blended granite-gravel porous concrete of varying mix proportions were produced using cement to aggregate mix ratio of 1:4. The samples were tested for their porosity, workability and compressive strengths. The data collected were analyzed with the aid of Design Expert 10.0. It was observed that the optimal combination for the granite-gravel blended porous concrete is 12% granite, 88% gravel, and a water-cement ratio of 0.66%. This combination gave a porous concrete with a compressive strength of 48.4 N/mm2, percentage porosity of 6% and a compacting factor of 0.91. These values when compared to that of the control specimen revealed that the optimal mix gave a porous concrete with higher porosity, higher workability and a better compressive strength.

To fight against the high cost and the increasing scarcity of cement and at the same time to reduce the CO2 greenhouse gases emission associated with the production of Portland cement, two types of wood ashes as a substitute of cement in the production of concretes were investigated. In this paper, we substituted cement by two types of species of wood ashes namely, avocado and eucalyptus ashes following the proportions ranging from 0% to 30 % on one hand, and on the other hand, we added these two types of species of wood ashes namely, avocado and eucalyptus ashes following the proportions ranging from 0% to 10 % by weight of cement in the concrete samples. After 7, 14 and 28 days of curing, compressive strength tests were conducted on these concrete samples. The findings revealed that using wood ashes as additives/admixtures or as a substitute of cement in the production/manufacturing of concrete decreased the compressive strength of concrete. Hence, it can be said that wood ash has a negative influence on the strength of concrete. At three percent (3%) and ten percent (10%) of addition, the wood ash from eucalyptus specie offers better resistance compared to the wood ash from avocado specie, whereas at five percent (5%) of addition, the wood ash from avocado specie offers better resistance compared to the wood ash from eucalyptus specie. At thirty percent (30%) of substitution, the wood ash from eucalyptus specie offers better resistance compared to the wood ash from avocado specie. The compressive strengths increase with the increase of curing age.
