Pervious concrete is desirable for water drainage in building systems, but achieving both high strength and good permeability can be challenging. Also, the importance of compaction energy significant determining efficiency pervious concrete. However, research on development unconfined compressive (UCS) prediction models materials that incorporate parameters remains unexplored. Therefore, this study aimed to balance while optimizing required production. A Central Composite Design (CCD) was used design experiments within response surface methodology (RSM) evaluate UCS, porosity specimens produced with varying cement content (280.00–340.00 kg/m3), water-to-cement ratio (0.27–0.33), aggregate-to-cement (4:1–4.5:1), (represented by VeBe time, 13–82 s). regression model goodness fit (R2adjusted > 0.87) calibrated estimate UCS as a function mix time (Tvc). This potentially guide field practices recommending strategies designs concrete, between mechanical hydraulic construction applications.
