Physical Properties of Porous Concrete Paving Blocks with Different Sizes of Coarse Aggregate

Nur Hidayah, A.H. / Hasanan, Md Nor / Ramadhansyah, P.J.

This research studies the properties of Porous Concrete Paving Blocks (PCPB) with different sizes of coarse aggregate. Coarse aggregate (CA) is the main component in manufacturing PCPB. Three different sizes of coarse aggregate were used; 1) CA 5 – 10 mm as a control, 2) CA 5 – 8 mm and 3) CA 8 – 10 mm. Furthermore, a series of test were conducted such as density, compressive strength, porosity and skid resistance test to determine the properties of the blocks. It was found that the size of coarse aggregate affects the strength and porosity of the blocks. The strength was reduced approximately in the range 5 % to 17 % from the control blocks. However, it is vice versa with porosity result which porosity of the blocks increased in between 5 % to 10 %. This shows that the blocks suitable for use in vehicle area where help in reduce the water ponding on pavement surface and also increased the skid resistance between the vehicle tires and pavement.
