Abstract

Porous concrete paving block (PCPB) is a block with continuous voids which are intentionally incorporated into concrete. The permeability and strength of PCPB with different sizes of coarse aggregate was presented in this study. Three different sizes of coarse aggregate were used namely passing 10 mm retained 5 mm (as control), passing 8 mm retained 5 mm (CA 5 – 8) and passing 10 mm retained 8 mm (CA 8 – 10). Furthermore, a series of test were conducted in this study such as compressive strength, porosity and permeability. It was found that the size of coarse aggregate affects the strength and porosity of the specimens. The result also shown that PCPB with CA 8 – 10 caused in low strength, but high in porosity and permeability compared to the other blocks. Beside that PCPB using CA 8 – 10 is able to remove surface runoff efficiently.
