Cold Climates Design and operation of permeable pavement in cold climates requires additional considerations. Houle, et al, found that frost penetration can reach depths of up to eight inches, which can influence the depth of the wearing surface and the infiltration bed below. However, this is heavily dependent on the type of porous media used.

and salt in cold climates. Porous asphalt might require less maintenance than regular pavement, especially in cold climates where heaving cracks traditionally impact asphalt and concrete. RAIN HARVESTING: RAIN BARRELS AND CISTERNS Description: Rain barrels and above-ground cisterns are closed containers that retain

The annual median snow and ice surface cover for the porous asphalt lot was not significantly different than the reference lot with salt applications four times greater (p=0.749 @95% CI). The annual median weighted skid resistance for the porous asphalt lot was 12% greater than the reference lot with greater salt application (p=0.061 @95%CI).

The main focus of this study was to evaluate the function of porous asphalt in cold climates. Measurements of the draining function of porous asphalt were carried out in a climate room with ...

Porous asphalt can work through up to 70% of precipitation each year, allowing it to be highly functional in damp conditions and better for the environment. Paving in cold weather While the method of paving asphalt differs during the cold months than it …

The lifespan of a northern parking lot is typically 15 years for traditional pavement while porous asphalt parking lots can have a lifespan in excess of 30 years due to reduced freeze/thaw stress (Gunderson, 2008). Maintenance Needs. Porous pavement should be inspected and vacuumed or washed at least twice a year as preventative maintenance.

The folks at the University of New Hampshire have invested some time into researching how pervious pavement and other green stormwater strategies perform in cold regions. They rave about the pavement's performance in this article titled: "Porous Asphalt Pavements for Stormwater Management in Cold Climates."

require any additional land. With proper design, cold climates are not a major limitation; porous pavement has been used successfully in Norway, incorporating design features to reduce frost heave. Permeable paving is not ideal for high traffic/high speed areas because it has lower load-bearing capacity than conventional pavement. Nor should it be

Asphalt roofing is one of the most popular and easily attainable roofing materials on the market. With benefits like powerful protection and affordability, it's a worthy contender when choosing roofing for winter. Some asphalt shingles offer energy efficiency as well, keeping your home warm no matter how cold it gets outside.
