Abstract : The Pervious concrete pavement is a unique and effective mean to growing environment. In pervious concrete, carefully controlled amounts of water and cementitious materials are used to create a paste that forms a thick coating around aggregate particles. A pervious concrete mixture contains little or no sand, creating a substantial void content. The main objective of this project is to increase the strength of Fiber added pervious concrete and at the same time to replace the aggrgate with Steel Slag. In this project the Recron fibers are added in 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5% and 2.0% to the concrete and by determining the mechanical properties the optimum mix is found and it is replaced by steel slag in 10% , 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%. The various tests such as workability, water absorption, compressive strength test, acid test and abrasion test are doneto find the mechanical properties of concrete.
