Pervious Concrete Infiltration Testing
Monday, March 10th 2014
1:15pm – 2:45pm
City of Tulsa West Yard, 440 W 23rd Street
March 2014 marks the 2-year anniversary that our pervious concrete test at the City of Tulsa West Yard has been poured. OSU will be conducting ASTM C1701 infiltration testing for each of the 5 slabs poured, located at the City of Tulsa’s West Yard, just west of the CNG Station (same entrance off 21st street, just west of the Arkansas River). They have been testing these slabs for the past 2 years.
