摘要：India is facing acute shortage of groundwater. There is excess rainfall in some areas and scarcity ofrainfall in other areas. There is no proper means of storage of rainwater in excess rainfall areas and the rainwater mixeswith the sewage water and joins the sea. In the scarcity rainfall areas also, storage structures like dams, weirs, andbarrage were in minimal number and it is inadequate to store the rain water during excess runoff. Also groundwater isbeing exploited artificially for the needs of industry, residential purposes, and agriculture. So it’s great time toimplement porous pavement in India which recharges the ground water to a great extent. Porous Pavement also knownas Permeable, Gap Graded, No fines, Enhanced porosity concrete have a porosity of about 15 to 25 percent. It consistsof cement, coarse aggregate, water with little to no fine aggregates. Water-cement Ratio can be in the range of 0.30-0.40. Porous pavement can be used in low traffic pavements, residential streets, tennis courts, parking lots.
