    Permeable pavement allows stormwater to pass through it, reducing runoff. It comes in various forms like permeable concrete and porous asphalt. It can be used for parking lots, driveways, sidewalks, and low-traffic roads. There are three systems - full infiltration passes all water into soil; partial infiltration uses barriers to direct water to sewers; and full attenuation stores water on-site for reuse. Permeable pavement provides environmental benefits like reduced flooding and pollution but requires regular maintenance and is not suitable for heavy traffic or freezing climates.

    CIVIL ENGINEERING
    PERMEABLE PAVEMENT
    • INTRODUCTION:
    • Permeable pavement is a technique which allows storm water to
    enter through it.
    • In addition to reducing runoff,this techniques efficiently traps
    suspended solids,filters and pollutants from water.
    • Examples for this type of systems includes roads,lawns and lots that
    are subjected to light traffic.
    NORMAL PAVEMENT PERMEABLE
    PAVEMENT
    Types of permeable pavement systems
    Permeable concrete
    Porous concrete
    Plastic grids
    Usage of single sized aggregates
    Permeable interlocking concrete pavements
    THE STRUCTURE OF THE PAVEMENT
    APPLICATIONS AND PLACEMENT
    • Parking lots.
    • Driveways.
    • Side walks.
    • Trees gate in sidewalk.
    • Swimming pool decks.
    • Tennis court.
    • Green house floors.
    • Car washing stations.
    • Residential roads and driveways.
    THREE SYSTEMS OF PAVEMENTS
    FULL INFILTRATION
    PARTIAL INFILTRATION
    FULL ATTENUATION
    SYSTEM A – FULL INFILTRATION
    SYSTEM B - PARTIAL INFILTRATION
    SYSTEM C – FULL ATTENUATION
    • Full infiltration : It refers to a system where all water goes through
    Topmix to flow into the soil underneath. It’s particularly useful in wet
    areas that don’t need to collect the rain water.
    • Partial infiltration : It involves a semi permeable barrier beneath
    Topmix that acts a drainage system into near by sewers (or)
    waterways useful when the layer beneath Topmix can’t pass the water
    through on its own.
    • Full attenuation : It uses a capture system to store all the water that
    flows through topmix. This option is most useful in areas with unclean
    water and high recycling rates,since the capture water can be reused
    later.
    ADVANTAGES:
    □ Low impact development.
    □ Reduce water logging.
    □ Ground water recharge.
    □ Reduce humidity in atmosphere.
    □ More efficient land use.
    □ Save trees.
    □ Less resources (reusable).
    □ Safety (Eliminate ponding).
    DISADVANTAGES:
    ◇ Abrasion and Raveling.
    • High speed vehicles are not allowed.
    ◇ If reinforcement required ,epoxy coated bars should be used.
    • Chances of rusting is more.
    ◇ Regular maintenance.
    • Cleaning of pores should be done regularly.
    THE UNDER DRAIN DESIGN
    EVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS
    ▪︎Reduce storm /water runoff.
    ▪︎Eliminate need for detention ponds and costly storm/rain water

    management practices.
    ▪︎Increase water table and aquifers.
    ▪︎Allow for more efficient land development.
    ▪︎Minimize flash flooding and standing water.
    ▪︎Mitigates surface pollutants.
    LIMITATIONS:
    • The technology isn’t ready for wide scale deployment.
    • The permeable surface therefore not suitable for use in subzero
    temperature.
    • It is not suitable for use in high volume roadways that heat heavy
    loads,although it can be used on shoulder lanes,residential
    streets,pedestrian and bike paths and parking lots.
    CONCLUSION:
    “Being able to control and actively manage the drainage of water from
    the developed landscape significantly reduces the risk of surface
    water flooding,protecting both the natural and built environment. “
