Properties	Pervious concrete	Porous asphalt	PICP
Typical pavement surface thicknessa	5 to 8 inches	3 to 4 inches (thicker for high wheel load applications)	3 inchesa
Bedding layera,f	None	1 in. AASHTO No. 57 stone	2 inches of AASHTO No. 8 stone (MnDOT 3127 FA-3)
Reservoir layerb,f	AASHTO No. 57 stone or per hydraulic design	AASHTO No. 2, 3, or 5 stone	4 inches of AASHTO No. 57 stone over No. 2, 3 or 4 stone
Construction properties	Cast in place Seven day cure Must be continuously covered	Cast in place 24 hour cure	No cure period Manual or mechanical installation of pre-manufactured units
Installed surfacing costc	3 to &#364/square foot	&#362/square foot	3 to &#364/square foot
Minimum batch size	None
Longevityd	20 to 30 years
Overflow	Catch basin, overflow edge, elevated underdrain
Runoff temperature reduction	Cooling at the reservoir layer
Surface colors/texture	Range of light colors and textures	Black or dark grey colors	Wide range of colors, textures and patterns
Load bearing capacitye	Handles all vehicle loads with appropriate surface and base/subbase layer material and thickness design
Surface cleaningg	Periodic vacuuming; replace if completely clogged and uncleanable		Periodic vacuuming; replace jointing stones if completely clogged and uncleanable
Other issues	Avoid concentrated deicers Avoid winter sanding	Avoid seal coating Avoid winter sanding	Avoid winter sanding
Design reference	Report 522-2010	Hansen 2008NAPA	Smith 2011 ICPI

^aThickness may vary depending on site and traffic conditions
^bReservoir storage may be augmented by corrugated metal pipes, plastic arch pipe or plastic lattice crates
^cSupply and install minimum surface thickness only; minimum 30,000 sf with Minnesota 2012 prevailing labor wages. Does not include base reservoir, drainage appurtenances, engineering, or inspection
^dBased on pavement being properly maintained. Resurfacing or rehabilitation may be needed after the indicated period
^eDepends primarily on on-site geotechnical considerations and structural design computations
^f ASTM D448 Standard Classification for Sizes of Aggregate for Road and Bridge Construction or ASASHTO M-43
^gPeriodic vacuuming frequency determined from inspection, intensity of use, and other potential sediment sources
