We are working on a project for studying the characteristics of pervious concrete. We are planning for fabrication of a model for finding the permeability of pervious concrete.
There are generally two methods adopted for determination of permeability of pervious concrete namely: falling head permeameter and constant head permeameter. You can adopt the procedure given in ASTM C1701 for determination of the same under laboratory conditions.

Dear Sangamreddi, I think the article "Water Permeability of Pervious Concrete Is Dependent on the Applied Pressure and Testing Methods" By Yinghong Qin, Haifeng Yang, Zhiheng Deng and Jiang He is useful.
Dear Mr. Chandramouli
Kindly follow the IS 3085 test method for permeability of cementitious materials. One copy of the test is also available on researchgate.

Dear
Testing for water absorption can give an idea about the voids and permeability
