Porous Concrete Pavement Containing Nano-Silica: Pre-Review

Abstract

Porous concrete pavement is being used as one of the solution to decrease the storm water runoff by capturing and allowing rain water to drain into the land surface. The main problem of porous concrete pavement is the strength itself. The objective of this paper is to review the use and performance of nanosilica in porous concrete pavement. From the literature review of the previous research, it was found that the conventional porous concrete pavement doesn't has good strength for pavement purpose. An addition of nanomaterial will improve the physical and chemical properties of the porous concrete pavement.
