Effect of Flexural Fatigue Loading on Mechanical Properties, Permeability, and Rainstorm Resistance of Novel Pervious Concrete
Publication: Journal of Materials in Civil Engineering
Volume 36, Issue 10
Abstract
In this paper, a novel pervious concrete (PC) has been proposed, which combines a high-strength self-compacting concrete matrix with artificial pore channels, to prepare a novel self-compacting recycled pervious concrete (NSRPC) with vertically and uniformly distributed pore channels. Then, an analysis was conducted to assess the flexural performance, permeability, and resilience to rainstorm of NSRPC after flexural fatigue load, which was carried out to ascertain the fluctuations in strength and drainage efficiency over the anticipated service life. The experimental results of NSRPC with porosity levels of 0.28%, 0.56%, 0.84%, and 1.12% show that the reduction in rainstorm will first decrease and then increase with the increase of fatigue cycles. After fatigue cycles, the corresponding NSRPC flexural strength was 5.9, 5.6, 5.4, and 4.5 MPa, respectively, and the ultimate displacement decreased by 20.2%, 25.1%, 28.0%, and 33.1%, respectively. After fatigue cycles, NSRPCs still demonstrate good storm waterlogging resistance under 20-, 50-, and 100-year rainstorms. The maximum water retention dissipation rate of NSRPC can reach , and the maximum water retention depth is less than 2.5 mm. Additionally, the permeability coefficient of NSRPC remains almost unchanged with an increase in fatigue cycles. When the permeability coefficient is greater than , the depth of stagnant water remains almost constant with the increase of the permeability coefficient. The research in this project provides a new material and direction for the study of pervious concrete to control rainstorms and waterlogging.
