This study focuses on a value-added function to StormPav Green Pavement System, that is not only designed to store stormwater but to act as a conduit to drain stormwater in a typical commercial environment. This system is a form of permeable road, in which multi-unit small chambers are used to overcome the problem of big stormwater storage structure; and at the same time could provide a greater strength in its interlocking manner for vehicles transportation. This structure is analysed of its capability to store and convey stormwater from roof and road catchments that is subjected to 10-year ARI design rainfall with durations ranging from 5 to 180 minutes.
