To test the influence of binder strength, porous concretes with 4 binder strengths between 30.0-135.0 MPa and 5 void ra tios between 15%-35% were tested. The results indicated that for the same aggregate, the rates of strength reduction due to the in creases in void ratio were the same for binders with different strengths. To study the influence of aggregate size, 3 single size aggre gates with nominal sizes of 5.0, 13.0 and 20.0 mm (Nos. 7, 6 and 5 according to JIS A 5001) were used to make porous concrete. The strengths of porous concrete are found to be dependent on aggregate size. The rate of strength reduction of porous concrete with small aggregate size is found to be higher than that with larger aggregate size. At the same void ratio, the strength of porous concrete with large aggregate is larger than that with small aggregate. The general equations for porous concrete are related to compressive strength and void ratio for different binder strengths and aggregate sizes.
