    Report on Pervious Concrete
    Reported by ACI Committee 522
    ACI 522R-10
    This report provides technical information on pervious concretes application,
    design methods, materials, properties, mixture proportioning, construction
    methods, testing, and inspection.
    The term pervious concrete typically describes a near-zero-slump,
    open-graded material consisting of portland cement, coarse aggregate,
    little or no fine aggregate, admixtures, and water. The combination of
    these ingredients will produce a hardened material with connected pores,
    ranging in size from 0.08 to 0.32 in. (2 to 8 mm), that allow water to pass
    through easily. The void content can range from 15 to 35%, with typical
    compressive strengths of 400 to 4000 psi (2.8 to 28 MPa). The drainage
    rate of pervious concrete pavement will vary with aggregate size and
    density of the mixture, but will generally fall into the range of 2 to 18 gal./
    min/ft
    2
    (81 to 730 L/min/m
    2
    ). Pervious concrete is widely recognized as a
    sustainable building material, as it reduces stormwater runoff, improves
    stormwater quality, may recharge groundwater supplies, and can reduce
    the impact of the urban heat island effect.

    1.1Introduction
    This report provides technical information on pervious
    concretes application, design methods, materials, properties,
    mixture proportioning, construction methods, testing, and
    inspection.
    The term pervious concrete typically describes a near-
    zero-slump, open-graded material consisting of portland
    cement, coarse aggregate, little or no fine aggregate,
    admixtures, and water. The combination of these ingredients
    will produce a hardened material with connected pores
    (Fig. 1.1), ranging in size from 0.08 to 0.32 in. (2 to 8 mm),
    that allow water to pass through easily. The void content can
    range from 15 to 35%, with typical compressive strengths of
    400 to 4000 psi (2.8 to 28 MPa). The drainage rate of
    pervious concrete pavement will vary with aggregate size
    and density of the mixture, but will generally fall into the
    range of 2 to 18 gal./min/ft
    2
    (81 to 730 L/min/m
    2
    ) or 192 to
    1724 in./h (0.14 to 1.22 cm/s).
    1.2Scope
    Concern has been growing in recent years toward reducing
    the pollutants in water supplies and the environment. In the
