An Experimental Study about the Reduction Effect of Surface Temperature of the Porous Pavement

Road pavement occupies large area in the urban area, and surface temperature of road pavement becomes remarkably high. In the past study, it has been shown that porous pavement have been expected to show an effect of reduction for rising the surface temperature. In this study, some experimental observations were carried out to consider this effect quantitatively, and surface temperature data, including the reduction effect by water sprinkling water in the actual environmental situation, were collected and analyzed.
