Permeable pavements are part of the construction trend, as one of the most complete types of Sustainable Urban Drainage Systems (SUDS). The permeable pavements are sections composed of several layers of construction materials, which allow the passage of water through it, from the surface to the esplanade, and together they offer the carrying capacity necessary to withstand a certain design traffic. FCC Construcción and in particular Áridos de Melo, has used this type of flooring in the Wanda Metropolitan car park, being a success in terms of results, quality of execution and durability.
