Permeable pavements are considered to be one of the effective measures for LID (i.e. Low Impact Development) and SUDS (i.e. Sustainable Urban Drainage System) globally. The major three types of permeable pavements are (a) pervious concrete (PC), (b) previous asphalt (PA), and (c) permeable interlocked concrete paver (PICP). The performance of all types of permeable is satisfactory at the start of the service life but greatly reduced if not maintained on time. Considering the long lengths of the pavements, measurement of permeability at different locations is a cumbersome and tedious task. Therefore, ease of performance and realistic results are of vital importance. In this study, ASTM C1701/C1701M—17a single ring infiltrometer, Stormwater Infiltration Field Test (SWIFT), and NCAT permeameter Methods are discussed in detail and examined for their relative ease of setting-up, versatility and performance. It is concluded that ASTM C1701/C1701M—17a single ring infiltrometer is the most versatile, easy to set up and produces accurate results.
