Original Abstract

Pervious concrete (PCO) has many advantages and applications, such as water pooling reduction, noise attenuation, replenishment of groundwater reserves, etc. However, the use of pervious concrete is limited due to its low compressive strength and durability, especially as a result of portlandite leaching from concrete exposed to flowing water. The effects of active additives (nano SiO2 (NS) spent catalyst generated at the fluid catalytic cracking unit (FCCCw) and paper sludge waste burned at 700 °C (PSw)) along with particle size distribution of the coarse aggregate on the properties and durability of pervious concrete were determined in the research. Active additives used in the binder were found to reduce portlandite leaching from concrete exposed to flowing water to significantly increase the resistance of concrete to freezing and thawing cycles and to increase sound absorption, compressive strength and infiltration rate. In addition, industrial waste (FCCCw and PSw) used as active additives significantly reduced the use of clinker in concrete applied in the construction of water pervious systems. The coarse aggregate size distribution had the greatest effect on the density, ultrasound pulse velocity (UPV), porosity, compressive strength and infiltration rate of pervious concrete.
