Water Permeable Paver Block
Abstract
Water permeable paver blocks are a sustainable pavement solution that allows rainwater to pass through the surface and enter the ground. Unlike conventional concrete pavements, they reduce water logging, surface runoff, and urban flooding while improving groundwater recharge. In this project, permeable paver blocks are made using cement, coarse aggregate, minimal fine aggregate, water, and admixtures. Their performance is evaluated through tests like compressive strength, permeability, and durability. These blocks are suitable for low-traffic areas such as parking spaces, footpaths, and gardens, promoting eco-friendly construction practices.
