Exfiltration Trenches for Post Construction Storm Water Management for Linear Transportation Projects: Laboratory Study

Abstract Details

2010, Master of Science (MS), Ohio University, Civil Engineering (Engineering and Technology).
The exfiltration trench as a best management practice for stormwater management is studied in the document. The exfiltration trench contains three layers such as pervious concrete, gravel and filter media (greensand). All three layers of the exfiltration trench were simulated and tested in the laboratory. Each layer of the exfiltration trench was studied individually. The modeled layers were studied as a system and their treatment efficiency was closely monitored and reported in this study. The permeability, porosity, total suspended solids analysis and cleaning properties of pervious concrete and filter media in removing specific contaminants were determined. At the end of this study two concrete mixes and two filter media were compared and the merits and demerits of each one was reported.
