Motivation• Raveling and surface
durability is still prevalent in pervious concrete
• Micro fibers have previously shown to improve pervious durability
• Limited anecdotal evidence suggested that macro-synthetic fibers

• Ferro-Green® by FORTA macro fibers function like fine aggregate, increasing fresh unit weight of the mixtures.
• Fiber addition decreased infiltration and permeability. No trends were observed with respect to dosage rate.
• Fiber addition did not affect compressive strength.• The addition of fibers increased tensile strength
for all mixtures with increased strength corresponding to dosage rate. Similar strength increases were observed at each dosage rate, independent of fiber length.
Summary and Conclusions
![Page 19: Macro Fiber Reinforced Pervious Concrete](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022082215/5871627a1a28ab58758b4675/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• Raveling and abrasion was reduced for all fiber dosages.
• Freeze-thaw durability was improved for all mixtures containing 2.25 inch length fibers. Only the mixture containing 7.5 pcy of the 1.5 inch fibers had improved freeze thaw durability versus the control.
• Comparing tensile strength increase, raveling reduction, and freeze-thaw improvement, 5.0 pcy of the 2.25 inch fibers appears to be the optimum dosage of the combinations tested.
