Pervious Concrete Project:
Phase Two
The purpose of this project is to conduct research for developing pervious concrete mix design formulas. A primary concern is that the pervious concrete mix design formula must withstand the cold climate conditions of Flagstaff, Arizona. During the second phase of this research project, the team continues working on the project using results and mix formulas created in Phase One. This project includes producing specimens, laboratory testing, creating the final data sheet and the final mix design formula. Also, the team will compare mix design formulas depending on which material they have: silica fume, and fiber.

Pervious concrete, also known as porous, gap-graded, or enhanced porosity concrete, is concrete with reduced sand or fines and allows water to drain through it. (www.epa.gov)
