Performance of pervious concrete under shear and bearing strengths

Abstract

Pervious concrete is one of the materials with potential applications in the construction industry because it can help reduce environmental problems caused by conventional concrete, improve storm water management, and provide a low-impact development alternative. Pervious concrete has numerous advantages, including assisting with water filtering and lowering pollutants. The ability to reduce storm water runoff is the most important feature that attracts the attention of pervious concrete. The objective of the present investigation is to evaluate the properties of pervious concrete and compare them with normal concrete. On the other hand, the requirement for aggregate to produce concrete is high, while natural resources are reduced. An attempt was made to use Black Marble Stone Waste Aggregate in concrete by replacing natural aggregate at a ratio of 0, 50, and 100%.To obtain the behavior of pervious concrete, compressive, shear and bearing strength are evaluated. A total of 54 specimens were casted and tested in this experimental work to study the behavior of concrete. To assess the shear and bearing strengths, a regression model was developed.
