The present work attempts to investigate the applicability of using recycled aggregate for the development of pervious concrete and for mitigating liquefaction and reliquefaction effects. The dynamic behaviour of developed recycled aggregate-based pervious concrete pile is compared with natural aggregate-based pervious concrete pile. The study attempts to explore the inherent material properties of pervious concrete keeping permeability equivalent to conventional stone columns but with improved mechanical characteristics with enhanced pore water pressure ratio reduction and soil displacement reduction efficiency under repeated incremental acceleration loading conditions. For testing, 1g shaking table tests were performed with 01 g, 02 g, 03 g and 04 g acceleration loading with 5 Hz frequency. The outcomes obtained from this experimental study infer that recycled aggregate-based pervious concrete pile exhibits a superior performance compared with natural aggregate-based pervious concrete pile. Overall, the use of recycled aggregate found sustainable approach for developing pervious concrete pile and found effective ground improvement application against liquefaction and reliquefaction hazards.

Pervious concrete is a special type of concrete with high porosity but with limited structural strength. Geogrid reinforced pervious concrete is a specialized type of pervious concrete that incorporates geogrids for added structural performance. The composite material benefits from the geogrid's tensile strength and load-spreading capability with the addition of geogrids. Present study aims at investigating the mechanical, shrinkage and clogging characteristics of Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR) modified pervious concrete reinforced with glass fiber mesh, HDPE mesh, fiber glass geogrid, HDPE geogrid and coir geogrid. SBR modification is done from 0% to 15% by weight of cement The results show a palpable improvement in flexural strength of pervious concrete. HDPE geogrid provides almost the double flexural strength as non-reinforced pervious concrete. SBR modification of pervious concrete also enhanced the mechanical properties. Each grid/mesh has its own optimum dosage of SBR for maximum flexural strength. Laying geogrids can reduce the drying shrinkage of pervious concrete. The relative contact area of grid/mesh with the cement paste is a critical factor in reducing drying shrinkage. However, geogrid can lead to clogging in pervious concrete. Soil particles get accumulated in the void spaces and thereby reduce its permeability. Coir geogrid traps a larger quantity of soil particles impairing the permeability. Functional regression modelling by Functional Data Analysis approach is used to analyse the relationship between various grids and meshes with the properties of pervious concrete. The p-value and derivative plots gives better insight into the factorial effects.
