Zusammenfassung:Shredded scrap cured carbon fiber composite material is recycled upon using this waste material in permeable, for example pervious, concrete which then exhibits improved mechanical and load bearing properties. The permeable pavement composition includes a quantity of pavement material, and a quantity of cured carbon fiber composite material (CCFCM) configured to be added to the pavement material to produce a reinforced composition having improved characteristics. An example of pavement material includes a pervious concrete material. The method includes providing a quantity of pavement material, and adding a quantity of cured carbon fiber composite material to the pavement material to produce a reinforced composition having improved characteristics.
