Title:

Effectiveness of Maintenance of Pervious Concrete Pavements' Permeability with Conventional Municipal Utility Equipment

Accession Number:

01337569

Record Type:

Component

Abstract:

Impermeability or limited permeability of pervious concrete pavements renders the pavements distressed because the pavement no longer fulfills its role as a storm water management tool. Maintenance to restore impermeability of pervious concrete pavements is rarely considered or planned for by owners. This paper reviews the efficacy of three common municipal utility maintenance or street cleaning machines to remove fine and organic material from the interconnected void spaces of pervious concrete. In addition, this paper introduces a new method to show how and where entrapped fines reside in the interconnected void spaces of pervious concrete in relation to the pavement surface.

Supplemental Notes:
