A Fundamental Study on the Development of Porous Concrete for Planting

식재용 다공질 콘크리트의 개발에 관한 기초적 연구

As a fundamental study on the development of porous concrete for planting, this study is designed to present the properties of porous concrete by varying the kinds of cement, paste to aggregate ratio and dosage of AE admixture. As the results of experiment, the void volumes show 30~33%, 25~ 28% and 17~22% respectively, with paste to aggregate ratio of 20%, 30% and 40%. And unit weight is 1700~1900kg/㎥ while compressive strengths 40~60, 8 0~100 and 120~150kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. pH of concrete shows a sufficient value at which the plant could grow, when the concrete is permeated in Ammonium Phosphate Dibasic for more than 1 hour. In brief, it shows a possibility of development of porous concrete if the concrete is permeated with permeating in Ammonium Phosphate Dibasic for more than 1 hour when the blast furnace slag cement is used.
