Wearing characteristics assessment of pervious concrete pavements
Seven different concrete mixtures were prepared to estimate the possibility of using pervious concrete for light traffic urban areas. The total porosity, density, compressive strength, flexural strength, abrasion resistance, and traffic noise absorption capacity were tested for all the concrete specimens. The first mixtures corresponded to a standard dense concrete mixture (M1), while the other mixtures were pervious concrete mixtures involving two different types of aggregates (dolomite and steel slag) and different proportions of aggregate fractions. The total porosity, density, compressive strength, flexural strength, abrasion resistance, and traffic noise absorption capacity were tested in the case of all concrete specimens. The total porosity increased, whereas the compressive and flexural strength decreased simultaneously with an increase in the share of coarse aggregate fractions. The abrasion resistance and acoustic characteristics improved if only a fraction of the aggregate was used in pervious concrete preparation.
