Abstract: This research aims to study the temperature characteristic of porous cement concrete as an alternative pavement that can help to mitigate urban heat island effect, and all the benefits it can provide, along with several offspring. Three experiments conducted in this research focus on the effect of specimen thickness,moisture content and wind speed on the thermal conduction properties of porous cement concrete. Isostatic pressing method is adopted in the molding process of specimens and reserved holes method is utilized to measure the internal temperature of the specimens.The data presented in this paper explains the tend of thermal conduction properties accompanying the increase of specimen thickness,moisture content and wind speed.

Abstract: Porous cement concrete, which has some superiority in environmental protection compared with normal concrete, has been more widely applied. Performance of Steel Slag and influence of the steel slag aggregate on physical and mechanical properties and durability of porous cement concrete were studied in this paper. Based on study of porous cement concrete properties, the paper puts forward several typical pavement structure forms in engineering application of porous cement concrete from finite element analysis method.
