How Permeable Pavements Work

[jonathanbell]

I work in site maintenance and permeable paving and driveway. Are an absolute nightmare 100% headache to keep clean. The stone in-between the blocks clogs up after 6 months driveway and paving are holding standing water. But the water will subside when the weeds and moss start growing and they will because they will have plenty of water. Leaving your driveway or paving looking horrible. If you park vehicles on this stuff you will end up with two groves where the vehicle has been sitting. How to maintain you ask. You cannot jet wash you will blow all the small chippings out and loosen the blocks themselves. You cannot use a narrow edge scraper because you just pull all the stones out. Someone has to get there hands a knees and pull the weeds out individually this is expensive to the client and when that's done see you in about two months. It is not a attack on this company. But permeable paving doesn't work

The permeability rate is upon the material of the permeable bricks, diameter of the graves and etc, but the video only referred to the permeability, actually we can pave the polymer concrete drainage kerbs to discharge the rainwater fast as well. Permeability and fast discharge are very important. Also can install the rainwater harvest module to storage the rainwater.

Anyone here from school??? And this is just a great explanation!

In my experience geotextile always clogs. If you want runoff to flow into native soils - don't use it.

In yours topic we can see sustainability as urban echology to achieve the objektive of maintence of natural balance, the project of enviromental equlibria. The use of pervious concrete pavement is significantly increasing due to reduction of roud runoff and absortion of noise. I will add that pervious concrete is usually used in north of Iran because of heavy rainfalls in these regions and also its enviromental benefits such as controlling runoff, restoring groundwater supplies and finally reduction UNDERGROUND POLUTION that is topi of 21th century. Pervious concrete has ACUSTIC properties due to its HIGH POROSITY that REDUCE NOISE POLLUTION. High penetration velocity of water into pervious concrete is has led into using this kind of pavement in other cases such as HYDRAULIC STRUCTURES, GREEN BUILDING AND AS A BASED COURSE OF HEAVY TRAFFIC PAVEMENTS.
Good luck!

Hello sir..i want to know which material are used in this...??

[karthikagopu]

Can I know what software used to make this video...

The water that enters the soil strata, will lead to soil shrinkage...then obviously sum parts of pavement will lower down.

Hi, I’m a student and I’m working on a project involving pervious concrete. Could you please share your 3D model of pervious concrete for educational purposes? It would greatly aid in my research.

Thank you!

Run the outlet from permeable drain pipe to run into septic tanks

[bvegannow]

When it goes to the overflow, it could go to water storage to use instead of leaving property.

Hold up your putting in pipes and brick like hello thirsty concrete no brick needed.
Also why cant we do the same with roads thirsty cement can help you do that.

I see these everyday at work. It only clogs because most people are not educated of permeable pavements. If maintain properly it works effectively.

Hi! I’m a student at and I’m working on a project involving pervious concrete. Could you please share your 3D model from your video for educational purposes? Thank you.

This looks great but how resistant is it to wear and tear? All concrete breaks down, it’s as inevitable as death and taxes. This looks like it’d break down within a month of cars continuously driving over it. Maybe if it was people and bikes or at most a horse it’d survive longer, but I don’t think this is the future for roads.

hi oak pavers can we use some of the clips of this video to our school project?

[ahmadaljneibi]

I would be so pissed if my soda fell in this concrete. They just made this concrete in our neighborhood

Fantastic, another way for the public to dispose of their chemicals to poison the local water source. Magic!
