ECO-SOCIAL PAVEMENT

CIVIL ENGINEERING

Due to the increasing population and its large use of vehicles the pollution and its effects on human being is increasing in the urban cities and hence this gave the idea of Eco-Social pavement to come into existence. With this pavement an attempt is being made to reduce this pollution and also an effective disposal of storm-water.In this project an experimental study is carried out for reducing vehicular pollution and storm water disposal. This study includes the step wise procedure for construction of Eco-Social pavement. The field survey consist the material selection for making of pavement and collecting samples for testing. The lab work consist testing of collected samples for proper selection of material for work as per the standard maintained in IS code. The constructed pervious concrete block of sizes 38cm×25cm×8cm by using aggregate of sizes 10mm, 6.3mm, and 4.75mm with TiO2 coat on surface of pavement for making of Eco-Social pavement. Three pervious block of each aggregate is used for testing strength, infiltration rate and pollution control test. The test result for pollution control reveals that there is substantial reduction of air contaminants from vehicles, The test conclude that there is 84 % of CO removal and near about more than 50% nitrogen removal in the various form of gases.
