Introduction Porous concrete pavement is an effective way to address serious environmental problems and support green, sustainable growth. This pavement technology uses land by most efficient way by removing the need for ponds and other storm water management resources. Pervious concrete has the ability to lower overall cost if project. In porous concrete, carefully controlled amounts of water and cementitious materials are used to create a paste that forms a thick coating around aggregate particles. Pervious concrete is used in many applications but its primarily used for making pavement. Pervious concrete has the ability to lower overall cost if project. In porous concrete, carefully controlled amounts of water and cementitious materials are used to create a paste that forms a thick coating around aggregate particles Porous concrete blocks applicable for low volume pavement, residential roads, parking lots and urban roads. Concrete is light in weight (about 1600 to 2000 kg/m3)
Objectives Drain of water to avoid water logging and optimization of rain water. To reduce problem with traditional surface water drainage system. To minimize risk of surface water flooding Use of stored water for various purposes. Evaluation of aggregate suitable for preparing porous pavement blocks To evaluate the aggregate suitability for preparing a porous pavement block based on their size gradation, compatibility, angularity and toughness index To evolve optimum size of coarse aggregate for maximum effective porosity and permeability. To determine the strength characteristics such as tensile splitting strength, compressive strength and abrasion resistance to evaluate the suitability of porous concrete for pavement blocks. To determine the porosity and permeability of the standard 15cm X 15cm X 7.5cm porous concrete in order to understand its effectiveness in groundwater infiltration and rain water harvesting .
PROBLEM STATEMENT Due to urbanisation and improper drainage, flooding is a common phenomenon. The pavements and courtyards are presently covered with imprevious concrete cement blocks which will not allow rain and drain water to percolate and reach groundwater table. Most of the cities get flooded even with little rainfall due to poor infiltration and drainage. Moreover these concrete surfaces emit thermal radiation and create heat islands and enhance the global climatic temperature . If paving materials is of pervious nature, it will enhance rain water harvesting and will recharge groundwater aquifiers below urban areas. In order to solve this problem, a cost effective, pervious concrete pavement block with a green cover on the top can be made from locally avaliable materials.The more viod spce in this pavement blocks will allow water to percolate freely downwards and allow grass to be cultured and grown on top of this pavement block other than green aesthetic look and cool ecofriendly environment.
SCOPE OF FUTURE WORK Pervious concrete is having a lot of potential and demand in the construction industry thanks to its infiltration property and reduction in temperature around due to its breathing holes present. It is similar to conventional concrete but manufactured without or minimum of fine grained aggregates. The voids present in the block in the absence of fine aggregates allow water to flow through the concrete, and drain through the sub-grade filtering surface water reducing overall storm water runoff enhancing. The need for pervious concrete has grown. It’s definitely growing and spreading but it still has a long way to go. The greatest market potential for Porous Concrete block is used in parking lots, Parks, road with light traffic, pedestrian walk way, green houses, courtyards, playground, etc. It can also be used as a structural drainage fill behind retaining walls.

Alessandra Bonicelli 2010 “Experimental Study on Effect of Fine Sand Addition on Differentially Compacted Pervious Concrete” This experiment shows that addition of sand in pervious concrete favours in improving admissible stress and tensile strength but drain ability was reduced Saeid Hesami 2014 “Effect of Rice Husk and Fibre on Mechanical Properties of Pervious Concrete Pavement “ . The compressive, tensile and flexural strength were found to be maximum at w/c ratio of 0.33.
MATERIALS Cement The cement used in this present study is OPC 53 Grade. The specific gravity of cement is 3.15. Standard Consistency is 33%. Cement is defined as Finely ground material which on addition of requisite quantity of water is capable of hardening both under water and in air by the chemical interactions of its constituents with water, and is capable of blending together appropriate materials (As per IS :4845-1968). 2. Fine Aggregate Fine aggregate is defined as the aggregate which passes 4.75mm IS Sieve & contains only so much coarse materials.(As per IS:383-1970). Fine aggregate used in the present study is locally available sand passing through 4.75mm IS Sieve. The specific gravity of 2.65 & 3.22 are used as fine aggregates.
Coarse Aggregate Coarse Aggregate is defined as the aggregate which is retained on 4.75mm IS sieve and containing only so much finer materials. ( As per IS 383-1970) The coarse aggregate with a maximum size of 20mm having specific gravity of 2.653 and fineness modulus 4.6 are used as coarse aggregate. Water Generally water which is easily available on the site such as tap water, borewell water, well water etc directly used for mixing the concrete. We use clean, fresh water for curing of concrete and for mixing the concrete.

Conclusion The size of coarse aggregates, W/C ratio and aggregate to cement ratio plays a crucial role because it increases the strength of concrete. The two important parameters of pervious concrete is unit weight and void ratio in mix design. Among the two methods of increasing strength of porous concrete, the addition of fines has gave more value when compared to replacement of cementitious materials. The addition of fines and replacement of Cementitious will reduce the permeability capacity of pervious concrete. The compressive strength of pervious concrete is increased by 4.35% when 5% fine aggregates were added to the standard pervious concrete. The strength of concrete is increased by 6.67% when 6% fine aggregates were added to the standard pervious concrete. The strength of concrete is increased by 12.96% when 7% fine aggregates were added to the standard pervious concrete.
