Abstract

To investigate the possibility to use pozzolanic materials in producing high permeable concrete (HPC), five materials were used to partially replacing ordinary cement: silica fume, fly ash, paper mill ash, palm oil ash and rice husk ash. Several tests were conducted on the cementitious paste and also on the HPC. Results revealed that 5% of pozzolanic material replacement to ordinary cement would yield the best results. However, the good performance of HPC can be determined through balancing of several characteristics such as compressive strength, void ratio, permeability, skid resistance and infiltration rate.
