## 1 Introduction  
The critical parameter to create sustainable buildings is the development of infrastructure systems that are environmentally friendly, climate-resilient, cost-effective, as well as long-lasting [1]. Concrete constitutes the most used and cost-effective construction product worldwide, having an annual production of 33 billion tons on average [2, 3]. The unavailability of efficient recovery routes leads to the need of the sustainable disposal and/or recycling of various wastes after their use [4]. Concrete is made up of cement, aggregates, and water, which may significantly affect its workability, durability, and mechanical performance. Generally, the increase in concrete production has resulted in the exploitation of mineral raw materials and even of natural resources while generating construction wastes in the process [5; 6]. The prevailing trend in modern research efforts is to focus on protecting the environment and, at the same time, addressing the problems that have arisen from human activity. This is evident from the turn of research, even from the concrete industry, to the development of more rational rainwater management systems. The beginning of these efforts started in the last decade in the USA with the design and development of pervious concrete, a new type of product that has a high porosity and allows rainwater to pass through its mass. From an environmental point of view, the cement production technology has a significant influence on energy consumption and increased CO\({}_{2}\) levels. An important amount of emissions is caused by human activity [7] and is associated with the high calcination temperature (\(\sim\)1450 \({}^{\circ}\)C) of raw materials. Aggregates constitute approximately up to 65% of the final concrete's volume and increase environmental interests related with their extraction and processing [8]. The European Union waste management legislations entered a limit on the quantity of FRP wastes relative to landfills and incineration activities [9]. Therefore, composite industries must identify cost-effective recycling solutions and/or disposal methods for CFRP and GFRP, which would pave the way for composite manufacturers and suppliers to promote sustainability of their products and maintain an upward growth of the composite sector [9]. Additionally, the quality of hardened concrete depends on the suitable application of various aggregates in various sizes and usually consists of natural sand and gravel or crushed rocks, as well as their cohesion with the cement paste. Thus, it is obvious that the enormous quantities of concrete produced every year require equal significant volumes of natural mineral raw materials both for aggregates and cement, something that causes serious environmental issues. Waste management and natural resource depletion, a worldwide challenge, are becoming even more apparent in driving change. Following this fact, a new legally binding agreement was adopted in December 2015 by the United Nations known as the Paris Climate Change Agreement, aiming to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions on a global basis [10]. Pervious concrete pavement (PCP) constitutes a special construction application system that is an integral part of sustainability. PCP generally constitutes a structural surface wearing course containing coarse aggregates, cement, water, and admixtures, allowing the infiltration of stormwater into the underlying granular base/sub-base resting over a soil subgrade [11; 12; 13]. It contains a small amount of fine aggregate or no fine aggregate, leaving gaps to achieve the purpose of water permeability. Due to their porous nature, PCPs suffer from lower strength compared to Portland cement concrete pavements (PCCPs), thereby limiting their applications to parking lots, medians, sidewalks, etc. [12; 14].
