  2. Permeable paving - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeable_paving

    Permeable pavement surfaces may be composed of; pervious concrete, porous asphalt, paving stones, or interlocking pavers. [1] Unlike traditional impervious paving materials such as concrete and asphalt, permeable paving systems allow stormwater to percolate and infiltrate through the pavement and into the aggregate layers and/or soil below.

  3. Pervious concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pervious_concrete

    A pervious concrete street in 2005. Pervious concrete (also called porous concrete, permeable concrete, no fines concrete and porous pavement) is a special type of concrete with a high porosity used for concrete flatwork applications that allows water from precipitation and other sources to pass directly through, thereby reducing the runoff from a site and allowing groundwater recharge.

  4. Pavers (flooring) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pavers_(flooring)

    Pavers manufactured from concrete go well with flag, brick and concrete walkways or patios. Concrete pavers may be used where winter temperatures dip below freezing. They are available in hole, x-shape, y-shape, pentagon, polygon and fan styles. An interlocking concrete paver, also known as a segmental paver, is a type of paver.

  5. Cool pavement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cool_pavement

    Evaporative porous pavements can be manufactured by drilling vertical holes in standard interlocking concrete paver blocks and filling the holes with gravel. [4] The holes increase the pavement’s permeability and cooling properties by allowing water to accumulate. [4]

  6. Energy-efficient landscaping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy-efficient_landscaping

    Among its various term usage, energy-efficient landscaping can refer to the reduction of energy usage in maintenance and operation of the landscape narrowly for the user/owner of the site, [1] [2] or broadly for the energy conservation of the global environment, such as mitigating urban heat island effect with reflective surface (increase ...

  7. Types of concrete - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Types_of_concrete

    Concrete has been used since ancient times. Regular Roman concrete for example was made from volcanic ash , and hydrated lime. Roman concrete was superior to other concrete recipes (for example, those consisting of only sand and lime) [1] used by other cultures. Besides volcanic ash for making regular Roman concrete, brick dust can also be used.
