Abstract

Research into the structural and hydraulic properties of permeable concrete segmental eco-paving has now been active in Australia for almost 10 years. Moreover, over the last six years a significant number of projects in Australia have successfully utilised this new form of construction. In this paper, the progress that has been made in the testing, evaluation, design and construction of permeable eco-paving is summarised and critically assessed and a state-of-the-art review is presented. The role and potential of permeable concrete segmental paving in best management practice in Australian urban road engineering is then assessed. This is illustrated by a series of case histories.
