Abstract: Pervious concrete is a sustainable material that offers numerous environmental benefits, including reduced stormwater runoff, groundwater recharge, and improved water quality. This paper discusses the properties of pervious concrete, such as compressive strength, split tensile strength, and permeability factor, and compares them to normal concrete. The use of pervious concrete in pavement design can significantly contribute to sustainable infrastructure development. This study highlights the advantages of pervious concrete, including reduced urban heat island effect, minimized road splashes, and improved skid resistance. The findings of this research can inform the design of sustainable pavements that mitigate the environmental impacts of urbanization. Keywords Pervious concrete, Sustainable infrastructure, Pavement design, Environmental benefits, Stormwater management.
