Pervious Concrete Cylinder Competition

REGISTRATION CLOSED

Objectives

Teams are challenged to apply sustainability concepts and to use their knowledge of concrete mixture design by producing pervious concrete which balances permeability and splitting tensile strength. Teams are additionally challenged to develop a mixture design which could be selected as “Best in Show” by practicing Pervious Concrete Professionals. The Best in Show mixture is that which receives the most votes of the professionals—they will evaluate the mixtures on practicality, expense, ease of placement, and other real-world concepts. The students’ ability to accurately create a mixture design documenting the concrete is also scored. Only teams judged to have a complete and accurate mixture design are eligible for inclusion in the Best in Show prize category. Because of this, it is highly recommended to work with a pervious concrete professional to review your mixture design for accuracy prior to submitting.
