Abstract | This paper presents the outcomes from a laboratory based research study undertaken to evaluate the fundamental properties of permeable concrete, including compressive strength, global and local strain, elastic modulus (stiffness), porosity and permeability. Six permeable concrete mixtures were made with constant water - cement ratio of 0.34, using different aggregate sizes and sand percentages. The compressive strength range was 15-35 MPa, while the permeability varied between 1.5 to 5.5mm/s and the porosity varied between 25 to 35%. Two testing methods were used to measure the strain and modulus of elasticity (MOE) of the permeable concrete namely, platen-to-platen method and strain gauge method. Considerable difference was found between the MOEs obtained by the two methods. The MOE determined using the platen-to-platen method consistently were lower in value, which has been attributed to the softness of the capping components, the interface between the specimens and the platen and overall machine compliance. |
