A pervious concrete system's performance is equally determined by its mechanical strength and permeability. While permeability ensures effective water infiltration, the pavement's structural integrity is determined not only by the compressive strength of the concrete but also by the load-bearing capacity of the subgrade soil underneath it. According to research, pervious concrete has a lower compressive strength than conventional concrete, making it more suitable for applications with light vehicular or pedestrian traffic rather than heavy loads.Experiments were conducted in this research to determine how various factors, such as the water-cement ratio, aggregate-to-cement ratio, aggregate size, and compaction techniques, affect the compressive strength of pervious concrete. Because the presence of interconnected voids, which is required for permeability, naturally reduces strength, the challenge is to find the best balance of water content, aggregate proportion, and cement binder. This balance should maximize both strength and water infiltration efficiency.Permeable cement pavements are a long-term and environmentally friendly solution to urban stormwater management challenges. They reduce surface runoff, replenish groundwater reserves, and mitigate flooding risks by capturing and channeling rainwater into the underlying soil. Pervious concrete is becoming an increasingly valuable material in modern infrastructure design due to its dual functionality of structural support and ecological benefits.
