pervious pavement

In conditions of intensive increasing of urbanized impervious areas, stormwater management became especially relevant. To solve this problem, a number of methods have been developed and investigated, which are based on the retention, detention or filtration of stormwater runoff. Stormwater management by the pervious pavements is an effective method to control surface runoff; it is widely used in foreign practice, allowing to reduce the runoff volume, provides its preliminary treatment, improves the safety on the roads.

In the period urbanization and development of cities regulation of runoff is very important. The effective and perspective method of the runoff regulation is the use of pervious pavement (PP) and other structures of filtration type. Pervious pavement provides reduction of stormwater volume entering the sewer system, promotes its partial treatment and recharging of groundwater, ensures noise reduction and improve the safety on the roads.
