        abstract = {Pervious concrete is a type of pavement that 
allows water to infiltrate through the surface into the 
ground below. Pervious concrete is designed to manage 
storm water runoff in urban areas by reducing the 
amount of runoff that flows into storm drains and 
ultimately into nearby waterways. This innovative 
solution offers many benefits, including reduced 
flooding, improved water quality, reduced heat island 
effect, improved air quality, and reduced maintenance 
costs. 
Pervious concrete is made up of a porous concrete 
surface layer that is typically 3 to 6 inches thick. The 
porous surface allows water to infiltrate into the ground 
below the pavement. Underneath the surface layer, 
there is a gravel or crushed stone layer that provides 
additional storage for storm water. Finally, there is a 
subbase layer of pebble stone or crushed stone that 
supports the pavement structure. 
The construction of pervious concrete involves careful 
planning and design to ensure that it is effective in 
managing storm water runoff. Proper design includes 
consideration of factors such as soil conditions, 
drainage patterns, and traffic loads. Additionally, 
proper maintenance is essential to ensure the long-term 
effectiveness of pervious concrete. Maintenance may 
include regular vacuuming to remove debris from the 
surface, 
periodic 
power washing to remove 
accumulated sediment, and repairs to damaged 
pavement sections. The strength parameters and 
permeability parameters met the requirements and 
pervious concrete made with pebbles as a coarse 
aggregate can be used for sustainable pavement 
construction.},
