Three-dimensional plastic mesh for reinforcing a permeable pavement

Leonardo Martinez Lopez

The three-dimensional plastic mesh is a modular device that during this research is demonstrated to be employed in a permeable concrete pavement as an affordable option for its reinforcement and to increase its modulus of rupture (MR). The mathematical models elaborated in ANSYS and Solidworks, and the mechanical tests to specimens (15x15x50 cm joists) as well as its implementation in the "La Cuspide" housing development in the city of Xalapa, Veracruz, Mexico, confirm this. The Design Thinking methodology was the basis of the whole process for the creation of different innovative proposals until reaching the optimal option. In order to carry out this methodology, it was necessary for the entire team involved in the execution of the project to be in tune with the "designer's way of thinking". To empathize with the environmental community and their demand for solutions for the care of water, to solve problems due to the high temperatures in the heat islands that are formed in the pavements, as well as noise reduction generated by the passage of vehicles on them, but on the other hand to the users of this type of infrastructure that require them without puddles that hinder their transit.
