Sažetak
Pervious concrete is an environment friendly solution for eliminating imperviousness-related drawbacks of conventional concrete. Pervious concrete mixes are predominantly composed of cement, coarse aggregate, and water. The partial or complete elimination of fine aggregate results in porous structure, which influences performance of pervious concrete. This article is aimed at reviewing major factors involved in the design of pervious concrete mixes, namely the compaction, aggregate to cementitious material ratio (ACR), sand fraction, water to cementitious material ratio (w/cm), size of coarse aggregate, and void ratio or porosity. The effects of various admixtures, replacement materials, and fibres, are also discussed. The results indicate that pervious concrete acts as an effective medium in promoting the sustainability of urban environments due to its multi-aspectual benefits.
