Effect of various coarse aggregate sizes and different marble chips proportions on properties of pervious concrete

Abstract

With the increase in modernization. It has been found that their no more uncovered area left for serving the purpose of infiltration and further there is huge amount of depletion been noticed in the underground reservoirs as well. This problem could be resolved my using pervious concrete or environment friendly concrete or we can call it green concrete as well. So the experimental tests were performed on cube specimens of size 150*150*150 mm the cylinders of size 150mm diameter and 300mm height and This paper shows the effect of various kinds of aggregates & marble chips on the pervious concrete. And study of 7, 28 days is conducted to determine the compressive strength and the split tensile strength of the specimen. The experiments are performed with a constant water cement ratio of (.40) & Aggregate ratio. And result resembles that strength of the concrete is proportional to its permeability but which could be further modified by introducing the different proportions or marble chips.
