MUMBAI, India, Nov. 21 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202521105491 A) filed by Kamalesh Kumar Tripathi; and Mr. Venkatesh Bansi Panmand, Pune, Maharashtra, on Oct. 31, for 'a system and method for road construction using a geogrid layer connected with plastic aggregates.'
Inventor(s) include Mr. Venkatesh Bansi Panmand; and Kamalesh Kumar Tripathi.
The application for the patent was published on Nov. 21, under issue no. 47/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a road subbase system (100) constructed using recycled plastic aggregates (101) and a geogrid layer (103). The road subbase system (100) comprises plastic aggregates (101) formed by melting and compressing waste plastic bags (102a), a geogrid reinforcement mesh (103), rust proof binding wire (106), and a subbase layer (104). The plastic aggregates (101) are shaped using a mechanical press (108) and include a centrally drilled hole (105) for mechanical fastening. The geogrid layer (103) is cut to match the subbase dimensions and features uniformly spaced grid openings for secure attachment of plastic aggregates (101). The plastic aggregates (101) are fastened to the geogrid layer (103) using rust proof binding wire (106) to form an integrated load bearing assembly. The combined configuration improves load distribution, reduces surface and subgrade settlement, and enhances compressive strength compared to conventional natural aggregate subbases."
