Experimental Investigation Pervious Concrete by using GGBS, Microslica and Artificial Fibers

Abstract

Pervious concrete is a light-weight concrete which is prepared by eliminating the fine aggregate from conventional concrete, also known as 'no fine concrete' or 'porous concrete'. It is a combination of graded coarse aggregates, cement materials and water. Now-a-days we are very much interested in sustainable and eco-friendly way of constructions. It is an important application for sustainable construction. It is traditionally used in parking areas, areas with light traffic, residential streets, pedestrian walkways, and greenhouses. The experimental investigation will be carried out to study the properties of concrete with artificial fibers (Polypropylene fiber & Steel fiber) to increase the strength of the concrete with replacement of cement by different percentage of GGBS & micro silica problems will be discussed in this project.
