Study the Properties of Pervious Concrete with RHA, SCBA and Polypropylene Fibre

Because of the lack of water permeability and air permeability of the common concrete pavement, the rainwater is not filtered underground. Without constant supply of water to the soil, plants are difficult to grow normally. In addition, it is difficult for soil to exchange heat and moisture with air therefore, the temperature and humidity of the Earths surface in large cities cannot be adjusted. This brings the phenomenon of hot island in city. At the same time, the plash on the road during a rainy day reduces the safety of traffic of vehicle and foot passenger. The research on pervious pavement materials has begun in developed countries such as the US and Japan since 1980s. Pervious concrete pavement has been used for over 30 years in England and the United States. Pervious concrete is also widely used in Europe and Japan for roadway applications as a surface course to improve skid resistance and reduce traffic noise. However, the strength of the material is relatively low because of its porosity. The compressive strength of the material can only reach about 20 30MPa. Such materials cannot be used as pavement due to low strength. The pervious concrete can only be applied to squares, footpaths, parking lots, and paths in parks. Using selected aggregates, fine mineral, admixtures, organic intensifiers and by adjusting the concrete mix proportion, strength and abrasion resistance can improve the pervious concrete greatly.
