• Abstract:

  One of the biggest problems faced in metropolises around the world is the impact of drainage. The rampant use of conventional concrete and asphalt is increasingly minimizing the infiltration of urban areas and consequently causing flooding problems that cause material damage and loss of life every year that could be avoided with the adoption of urban drainage techniques. One of these technologies that has been studied is the application of porous concrete, also known as permeable. In this research, the constitution technique was used for two specific traits of permeable concrete of 1:3 and 1:4 respectively for compression and traction tests in flexion in order to measure the degree of efficiency of these materials and subsequently made a plate for visually check the infiltration potential obtained. The compression values for the 1:3 and 1:4 ratios were respectively 9.31 and 10.64 MPa. As for the flexion traction test, the values obtained for the traits were respectively 0.88 and 0.48.
