Abstract
The main objective of the Green concrete Project is to obtain extensive knowledge of gravel turf, consisting of receycled construction materials or natural gravel from quarries, as a new permeable and planted method for the surface consolidation of parking and low traffic areas. Main Research: - structural stability and material combination - infiltration rate, seeping water properties - water permeability, water absorption capacity, microclimate effects - load bearing capacity, eveness - applicability and suitability of plants, development of the vegetation
- gravel turf
- recycled construction materials
- revegetated parking areas
- load bearing capacity
- water permeability
