Effect of Coarse Aggregate Sizes on Properties of Porous Concrete Paving Blocks
Abstract:
Properties of Porous Concrete Paving Blocks (PCPB) were investigated in this study. Two groups of coarse aggregate sizes were performed; passing 8 mm retains 5 mm and passing 10 mm retains 8 mm. For mixture design, 100 % of coarse aggregate were used. However, fine aggregate was eliminated in this investigation. The density, water absorption, flakiness index and elongation index test were performed to determine the properties of the coarse aggregate used in this study. Compression test and skid resistance test were used to evaluate the performance of PCPB. The results show that PCPB containing coarse aggregate size 5 8 mm give high compressive strength compared to others PCPB specimen. In addition, both PCPB specimens give an in increasing in skid resistance approximately 30 % compared to Concrete Paving Blocks (CPB).
