Pervious Concrete:

Why use it?

    Pervious concrete is an innovative building material with many environmental, economic, and structural advantages. The proper utilization of pervious concrete is a recognized Best Management Practice by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for providing first-flush pollution control and stormwater management. Property owners and developers can also reduce fees and enhance the bottom line by using pervious concrete, which commonly provides 20-40 years of service with little or no maintenance.

Economic Benefits:   Alternative to costly stormwater management practices   Avoid stormwater impact fees for impervious areas   Utilization of regional materials and local concrete companies   Low life-cycle cost

Structural Benefits:   Textured Surface   Void Structure   Strength and Durability
