Porous Asphalt FAQs

What Is Porous Asphalt?

Porous asphalt is a type of permeable pavement that consists of large aggregate stones with a special mix of asphalt binder. This design allows rainwater to infiltrate through the pavement surface and into the underlying stone reservoir, promoting drainage, helping to manage stormwater, and reducing surface runoff.

What Are the Benefits of Using Porous Asphalt?

Stormwater Management: Helps reduce runoff and mitigate flooding by allowing water to seep through the pavement.
Water Quality Improvement: Filters pollutants as water passes through the porous surface.
Reduced Heat Island Effect: Can lower surface temperatures compared to traditional asphalt.
Less Erosion: Reduces soil erosion by minimizing runoff.
Cost-Effective: Can reduce the need for expensive stormwater management systems.

Where Can Porous Asphalt Be Used?

Porous asphalt is suitable for a variety of applications, including:

Parking lots
Driveways
Walkways
Low-traffic roads
Recreational areas

What Maintenance Is Required for Porous Asphalt?

Regular maintenance is essential to ensure optimal performance:

Vacuum Sweeping: Periodic cleaning to remove debris and prevent clogging
Inspections: Regular checks for damage or wear, especially after heavy storms
Repairs: Promptly address any cracks or surface damage to maintain permeability

Can Porous Asphalt Be Used In Cold Climates?

Yes. Porous asphalt can be used in cold climates, but it may require specific design considerations to prevent freeze-thaw damage. Proper drainage and maintenance are crucial to ensure longevity.

How Does Porous Asphalt Affect the Environment?

Porous asphalt helps protect the environment by reducing runoff, filtering pollutants, and promoting groundwater recharge. It can also contribute to the management of stormwater in urban areas.

Is Porous Asphalt Suitable for Heavy Traffic?

While porous asphalt can be designed to support heavier loads, its suitability to heavy traffic areas depends on the specific mix and design. Consultation with a pavement engineer is recommended for high-traffic applications.

How Does Porous Asphalt Compare to Traditional Asphalt?

Porous asphalt allows water to drain through the surface, while traditional asphalt is impermeable and directs water to stormwater systems. This difference can lead to reduced flooding and better water quality with porous asphalt.

How Long Does Porous Asphalt Last?

With proper installation and maintenance, porous asphalt can have a lifespan comparable to traditional asphalt, typically ranging from 15 to 20 years.

Is Porous Asphalt More Expensive Than Traditional Asphalt?

The initial installation cost of porous asphalt may be higher due to specialized materials and design. However, it can lead to savings in stormwater management costs and maintenance over time.
