Abstract:Influence of different types of chopped fiber (polypropylene fiber(PPF), polyvinyl alcohol fiber(PVAF) and glass fiber(GF)) dosages and lengths on mechanical properties and permeability properties of pervious concrete was studied. With the increase of PPF length, compressive strength increases firstly and then decreases. When length is 12mm, compressive strength of pervious concrete with different PPF dosages are lower than control group. Flexural strength increases with the increase of PPF length or dosage. Adding PPF results in the decline of porosity and permeability coefficient. When concrete is mixed with 6mm long PVAF, compressive strength and flexural strength are improved. While 6mm long GF is added, compressive strength decreases. Moreover, PVAF and GF both lead to decrease of porosity and permeability coefficient.
