Abstract

This study introduces the experiment based on following parameters: kind of aggregate (natural river gravel and air-cooled blast furnace slag), the aggregate gradation and content of binder. Main properties such as compressive strength, void content and hydraulic conductivity of pervious concrete were investigated in the experiment. The experiment showed satisfactory results in the case of pervious concrete made of natural aggregate. Results of pervious concrete made of air-cooled blast furnace slag aggregates are perspective, however needs for some optimizations. Results confirmed the opposite relationship between compressive strength and void content/hydraulic activity. ACBFS performs worse than NA as for compressive strength, while it performs better in the case of hydraulic conductivity and void content.
