In many countries pervious concrete is used as construction of foot path, low traffic areas, parking lots, and
river banks is becoming popular. It is necessary to performing test for evaluating structural performance of pervious
concrete. In this paper study about to determine the effect of various mix design and size of aggregate with constant
water/cement ratio on compressive strength and permeability of pervious concrete. Also use the fly ash and sand with
some percentage compare both the results. With different aggregate/cement ratio 4:1 and 5:1 and two sizes of coarse
aggregate were used, namely 10 mm and 20 mm with constant water/cement ratio 0.35 to determine compressive
strength and permeability of pervious concrete and compare properties with 20% fly ash replacement of cement and 15%
sand in replacement of coarse aggregate used in pervious concrete.
