Thesis

A Field Study to Evaluate Permeable Pavement Surface  Infiltration Rates, Runoff Quantity, Runoff Quality, and Exfiltrate Quality -- a Master's Thesis under the direction of Dr. William F. Hunt III, published by the Graduate School at North Carolina State University (2005), E. Z. Bean
This document Includes detailed research backgrounds, methods, results, analysis, and conclusions dealing with surface infiltration rates, water quantity and quality performance of permeable pavements. It also includes the summary of a rainfall analysis for major municipalities across North Carolina and detention pond sizing study for different areas, land uses, and soil types in North Carolina. (230 p, 13.1 MB)


Reports

Study on the Surface Infiltration Rate of Permeable Pavements -- submitted to the Interlocking Concrete Pavements Institute (2004), E. Z. Bean, W. F. Hunt, D. A. Bidelspach
Surface infiltration study funded by the Interlocking Concrete Pavements Institute with each site's information included in the appendix. The report was completed in June, 2004. (50 p)
                    
Permeable Pavement Use and Research at Hannibal Parking Lot in Kinston, NC -- NWQEP Notes (May 2001), W. F. Hunt,  S. Stephens 
Summary of runoff monitoring from a concrete grid pavers site in Eastern North Carolina. Data was collected from Hurricanes Floyd and Dennis (1999).  Monitoring was conducted from June 1999 through July 2001. (10 p)



Conference Papers

A Monitoring Field Study of Permeable Pavements in North Carolina -- submitted to the 8th Biennial Conference on Stormwater Research & Watershed Management
Summary of water quality and quantity monitoring from three permeable pavement sites across North Carolina; one each in the Piedmont, Coastal Plain, and Coastal regions.  Water quality data was collected from each site, while water quantity was only monitored from two sites.  (10 p)

Study on the Surface Infiltration Rate of Permeable Pavements -- submitted to StormCon 2004 Conference, E. Z. Bean, W. F. Hunt, and D. A. Bidelspach
Data was presented in Palm Desert, CA, at Stormcon in July 2004. This paper includes the most up to date data for surface infitration rates (including PICP, CGP, and PC) along with preliminary water quality results from a permeable pavement site in the Coastal Plain. (9 p)

Study on the Surface Infiltration Rates of Permeable Pavements -- submitted to the World Water & Environmental Congress: EWRI & ASCE (2004), E. Z. Bean, W. F. Hunt, and D. A. Bidelspach
This paper was presented in Salt Lake City, UT at the World Water and Environmental Resources Congress presented by EWRI and ASCE.  The paper covers surface infiltration rates of permeable pavements for PICP and CGP. Also covers preliminary water quality data from coastal plain monitored site. Submitted in February, 2004. (10 p)

Study on the Surface Infiltration Rates of Permeable Pavements -- submitted to the 1st Water and Environment Specialty Conference of the Canadian Society of Civil Engineers (2004), E. Z. Bean, W. F. Hunt, and D. A. Bidelspach
This paper was presented at the Canadian Society of Civil Engineers 32nd Annual National Conference in Saskatoon, SK, Canada in June, 2004.  Similar to the paper submitted to EWRI & ASCE (2004), this paper covers surface inflitration rates of permeable pavements for CGP and PICP tested sites along with preliminary water quality data from a coastal plain monitored site. Submitted in February, 2004. (10 p)
