“…The variation in aggregate size was studied by adding polypropylene fiber into the pervious cement concrete mix. The fall in aggregate size reported improved flexure strength and split tensile strength test but the compressive strength and water permeability showed no significant change in the behaviour [7].…”

“…These are obtained from propylene gas [6]. The usage of these PP fibers in concrete makes the concrete lightweight and reduces the voids of the concrete mix along with arresting the propagation of cracks [7]. PP fiber does not increase the strength of the concrete but contributes to the toughness and ductile nature of the concrete low content utility [8].…”

Hybrid fibre reinforced concrete was used to develop pavement quality concrete (PQC) to overcome the disadvantages associated with rigid pavements prepared with plain cement concrete. Hooked-end steel (ST) fibre of 60 mm in length and polypropylene (PP) fibre with a length of 36 mm were used as reinforcement for hybrid fibre concrete mix. The proportion of ST and PP fibres used were upto 1% in which PP fibres varied from 0 to 0.45% at 0.15% increment in the total mix. This study aims to assess the various strength workability and durability issue of the concrete mixes. Significant improvement in the properties of mechanical and durability characteristics was observed in the results with the addition of these fibres as compared to control cement concrete. Among all the mix proportions, the overall performance of the mixture by adding steel fibre at 0.85% and polypropylene fibre at 0.15 % contents was found to be the best. However, a slight increase in water absorption value was observed by the incorporation of fibres into concrete due to increased thickness in transition zone and porosity.

“…However, overuse of impervious ground surfaces would induce many problems, such as the urban waterlogging, heat island effect, blockage of underground water cycle [1][2][3][4][5]. Pervious concrete, which contains pores to allow permeation of water and air, is being used as one of the solutions for combating the above problems [6][7][8][9][10].…”

Pervious concrete, which has pores to allow permeation of water and air, is being used as one of the solutions for combating the problems induced by urbanization. For the purpose of evaluating the main factors affecting the performance attributes of pervious concrete, a total of 24 pervious concrete groups with varied mortar volumes and water/cement ratios were made for porosity, water permeability and cube strength measurements. Based on the test results and regression analysis, it was found that interconnected porosity plays major role in the water permeability, while the open porosity and W/C ratio are together the key factors governing the cube strength.
