Development of a Special Provision on the Use of Pervious Concrete As a Stormwater Management Tool in Parking Lots
The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) has released a report that develops a special provision for VDOT to implement pervious concrete as a stormwater management tool through the exploration of mix designs, material properties, and infiltration capabilities. The abundance of impervious surfaces in developed areas leads to increased threats from stormwater runoff, and pervious concrete makes it possible to replace certain surfaces that generate stormwater runoff, such as parking lots.
