Evaluation of Porous Pavements Used in Oregon. Volume 2. Appendices
Porous pavements or open-graded asphalt mixtures have been in use in Oregon since the late 1960s. The use of this pavement type has increased over the years because the pores in the mat provide an efficient way for water to drain from the pavement surface. This greatly increases safety in the areas of skid resistance and splash and spray. An added benefit from these pavements is that tire noise is partly absorbed into the voids of the pavement. The purpose of the study was to evaluate porous pavements, especially the F-mix, as they are used in Oregon. The input from inside (i.e., contractors, ODOT personnel, asphalt experts) and outside (i.e., literature published over the years from agencies in the U.S. and abroad) Orgeon was used to study open-graded mixes. The information was then used for improving porous pavements in Oregon.
