PCI
offers a vast array of services ranging from consultation to
construction of pervious concrete infiltration systems. Our
technical knowledge of industry specifications coupled with our vast
experience can be invaluable to engineers and general contractors
who are looking to use pervious concrete in their project.
PCI works with owners, engineers, architects, and contractors to
develop and implement ways to meet regulations as well as maximize
land use and reduce the size of retention areas.
A crucial ingredient in a successful pervious placement is the mix
design. Since unit weights and void percentages can vary from one
job to another, PCI consults with mix design and placement
techniques that will work best with the existing plans.
Design is vital to having an effective stormwater management
system. PCI experts recognize the special site considerations such
as slope, characteristics of the underlying soil, function of the
site and the surrounding areas. Using their technical expertise, PCI
can help design a plan that meets your needs and specifications.
PCI provides the complete construction of a pervious concrete
infiltration system. From installation of stormwater chambers to
hold stormwater or a fabric and stone base, PCI can meet your
specified needs. Pervious concrete has an unique construction,
different from regular concrete. PCI has developed tools ideal for
this distinctive placement and techniques for an optimum system.
PCI offers training for flatwork crews to properly install and
repair pervious concrete parking lots, street shoulders and
sidewalks. The National Ready Mix Concrete Association has
developed the Pervious Contractor Certification Program which
ensures that contractors are knowledgeable and qualified.
Whether training the industry professionals or contractors, PCI's
two day practical seminar that includes both classroom training and
hands-on placement is ideal preparation for meeting certification
requirements.
Many engineers and contractors are not familiar with the many benefits of pervious concrete. For this reason, PCI's president & CEO, Dale Fisher travels the country speaking on behalf of the concrete industry while serving on industry committees. Dale has spoken at various Ready Mix seminars, state and county organizations and private industry programs. His lectures give a basic understanding of pervious concrete and the benefits of its placement in local markets.
