Default Permeable Concrete

Hi all



Does anyone know if permeable concrete is being used in Australia?

I know permeable pavers and other methods are out there but am more interested in an ability to pour on site permeable concrete.

I've heard of it, there is a mob in Tassie.

What do you want to use it for?

I'm not sure of the stability rating of it, etc, mostly pavers are used for permeable surfacing. The pavers are tested to be a good system and they are a reputable product.

I would be researching the stability etc of any product before using it, check with a structural engineer if nessacary, I am not endorsing this product, as I know little about the reliability of it.

Google ecoconcrete, Tasmania.

Hope that helps.

Julie
