摘要：Increased urbanization has an impact on increased impervious surface, consequently the urban drainage system becomes gradually overloaded, with frequent spills and inundate urban areas. Upgrade or re-design the existing drainage system is not an effective solution because it does not address the source of the problem. It is necessary strategies for urbanization reduction of storm-water runoff. These strategies are aimed to reduce storm-water runoff mainly through water infiltration. One of the strategies is to develop permeable pavement. This study is aimed to test the capacity of permeable pavement through the development of full scale physical models in the parking lot. The results show that proposed permeable pavement are able to significantly reduce volume and peak discharge of storm-water runoff, delay the start of runoff and slow the peak discharge. The application of this proposed permeable pavement in the urban area is strongly recommended to reduce drainage load as well as to increase groundwater recharge.
