Akhir Che Ros Ismail, supervisor Civil engineering Also available in printed version Porous asphalt pavement consists of standard bituminous asphalt and aggregates that has been screened to create voids that are highly permeable. The main concept of porous asphalt is the percentage of air voids that could affect the permeability of the pavement. The higher the void space, the more permeable the pavement structure will be. The aim of the study is to identify the percentage of air void content using Marshall Compaction test and to determine the rate of permeability according to percentage air voids for two gradations which are American and Australian gradation. Marshall Compaction method was used in order to get the percentage of air voids for both of the gradation. Falling head permeability test was then used to relate the percentage air voids with the rate of permeability for four gradations which was American, Australian, Malaysian and Singaporean gradation. From this study, it was found, that the designed aggregate gradations have significant effect on the porous asphalt mixtures performance. Studies shows using 50 Marshall Compaction blows, the percentage air voids for American and Australian gradation has achieved the design air void requirements. For the permeability result, it shows a relationship between the number of air voids and permeability rate of the samples. Based on the results, the higher the percentage of air voids within the pavement, the higher the rate of permeability. Among all four gradations, Malaysian gradation exhibits the best performance for rate of permeability among other countries fahmimoksen UTM 96 p.
