Permeable Concrete

not really sure what you're looking for specifically

Above is a fairly typical example of what LID research looks like

This looks fantastic, except it costs 36$. Is it possible you could point me to a resource that doesn't have a paywall (a tall order I know, I apologize).

Basically all I can suggest is farting around on google scholar.


If you're a uni student I'm sure you could browse databases through your library web page

different aggregate ratios for the concrete mix.

You'd probably have to repave that shit annually. Looks weak as fuck.

What happens when the ground becomes saturated and the water doesn't disperse, or erodes/causes uneven ground beneath the concrete and causes the concreat to split apart?

Cool demo, but I wonder how it holds up. The rate of diffusion is so quick that it leads me to believe that the pore size is fairly large. I wonder how it does in the cold, since water is allowed to move more freely through it. Maybe cracking isn't as bad.

Will it survive winter?

Yes, we want more sinkholes.

iirc it's got a concrete bed and a drainage bed under it so this doesn't happen

Seems like the pores would get clogged up pretty fast.

lye can fix that right quick.

JUST

Back in pre-history, when people cared, concrete had falls to culverts that drained to collectors that had things called 'oil separators' in. The clean run-off then drained to streams/sinks etc. It prevented something we used to call pollution from contaminating the environment generally.
