Permeable concrete is a type of concrete designed to allow water to pass through it, reducing surface runoff. It is made with larger aggregates and fewer fine materials, creating voids that enable water to infiltrate. This feature helps manage stormwater and can prevent flooding in urban areas. This innovative material is often used in parking lots, driveways, and walkways. By allowing rainwater to seep into the ground, permeable concrete supports groundwater recharge and minimizes erosion. Additionally, it can help filter pollutants from water before it reaches local waterways, contributing to better environmental health.
