Portland Cement Pervious Concrete (PCPC), Fine Crumb Rubber.
Abstract
Portland Cement Pervious Concrete (PCPC) can reduce the risk of flash flood by letting the storm runoff to sip through the voids available in the PCPC hence infiltrate into the soil. This unique ability of pervious concrete offers advantages to the environment, public agencies, and building owners by controlling rainwater on site and addressing storm water runoff issues. Thus, this study was conducted to substantiate the usage of inorganic, cheap and reusable material namely Recycled and Fine Crumb Rubber (FCR) in pervious concrete. The primary objective of this study is to compare the compressive strength, density and the surface infiltration rate of pervious concrete containing waste tire rubber with pervious concrete that is made up by using natural aggregate without any enhancement. Standard pervious concrete will consist of natural coarse aggregates and cement. In this study, will be replacing the natural coarse aggregates, the same size with the previous research. The modified pervious concrete will also be mixed with a certain percentage of FCR, replacing certain percentage of the coarse aggregate. The results of this study indicate that using recycled material could achieve similar performance as using natural aggregate, hence may reduce the construction cost.
