The document summarizes research on the effect and optimization of silica fume in pervious concrete. Phase 1 found that 5% silica fume optimized workability by increasing yield stress and viscosity in a linear fashion. Phase 2 showed that 5% silica fume improved workability, tensile strength, and freeze-thaw durability when voids were allowed to vary. Phase 3 found that when voids were fixed at 20%, 3-5% silica fume provided the greatest improvement in compressive strength and bond between paste and aggregate.
