Characterization of Pervious Concrete Using Recycled Aggregate and Fly Ash

Abstract

The major goal of the project is to create a previous cement concrete mix that is robust and long-lasting utilizing recycled materials, cement, and fly ash. The lack of natural aggregate and the large amount of building debris generated present opportunities for the use of recycled material: Concrete was once considered to be porous due to its greater permeability and pore structure. Widely used Previous Concrete provides the benefits of lowering noise levels, minimizing water buildup, enhancing the environment, and enhancing groundwater supplies. Unlike traditional concrete, which mostly consists of cement, coarse aggregate, and water, pervious concrete is made of diverse materials. The coarse aggregate is swapped out for recycled aggregate, and more research will be done to determine the final product. The findings indicate that the void content and permeability coefficient of pervious concrete rise to some extent with increasing w/c ratio or replacement ratio of RCA, although cubic compressive strength, splitting tensile strength, and abrasion resistance drop. According to data analysis, there are strong relationships between important performance metrics.
