The invention relates to a method for determining an
effective porosity of
pervious concrete, in which a test process is economic, convenient and rapid, and belongs to the technical field of testing of an
effective porosity of
pervious concrete. The method is mainly characterized by comprising the following steps: determining
mass m1 of each test piece in water, adopting a handheld electronic scale and a mesh bag, putting the test pieces which are soaked for 24 hours into the mesh bag, completely soaking in water, packing up a knot on mesh bag opening, resetting the electronic scale,
hooking up the
rope knot through a scale hook, observing a fixed display value on scale, i.e.,
mass m1 of the test pieces and the mesh bag in the water, after being stable, and deducting
mass 3 of the mesh bag in the water, so as to obtain mass (m1-m3) of the test pieces in the water. The method disclosed by the invention is simple and convenient to operate; the method has the beneficial effects that an average error therebetween is 1.43%, so that the method meets a precision requirement preset by the test, and the special method can rapidly determine mass of
pervious concrete test block in the water in a
test room or a construction field, so as to calculate the
effective porosity of the pervious concrete test block through a formula; the method not only greatly reduces
test equipment cost, but also is convenient and rapid, and is easy to popularize and use.
