Publication: World Environmental and Water Resources Congress 2008: Ahupua'A

Abstract

China is now in her high speed development period of urbanization. However, a lot of problems appear recently that are concerned with the changes of ground surface in urban areas. The flooding and water logging happen frequently while groundwater level falls down. The use of penetrable pavements is one of useful measures to compensate the changes of urbanization. The paper, based on experiment and analysis of penetrable pavement projects in Dalian City, China, discusses the hydrological and environmental effects of penetrable pavement. Dalian belongs to the north seasonal rainfall zone. The most of annual rainfall occurs in the 4 month's rainfall season. Considering these natural conditions, the effect and benefit of penetrable pavement in urban areas is evaluated. The research results are helpful to make the decision how to extend this measurement and how to compensate the additional consumption for using penetrable pavement.
