Pervious concrete is an innovative building material with many environmental, economic and structural advantages. The proper use of pervious concrete is a recognized best management practice by the US Environmental Protection Agency for providing first-flush pollution control and stormwater management. Property owners and developers can also reduce fees and enhance the bottom line by using pervious concrete, which commonly provides 20 or more years of service with little or no maintenance. You will learn about the latest mix designs, freeze and thaw resistance, environmental benefits, stromwater management planning and placement techniques. This teleconference will provide examples of projects, and you will learn how perious concrete can earn LEEDŽ points on your green building project.
