Oil sludge is similar in composition to the composition of bitumen, which is one of the important components of asphalt concrete mixture. Therefore, oil waste can be used in the production of asphalt concrete, both as an organic binder to strengthen local soils and as a binder to produce organomineral mixtures. The use of oil sludge in road construction helps preserve natural resources, improve the environmental situation, and reduce the cost of building materials. In this work, physical and mechanical properties of asphalt concrete mixture of grade I type B were researched. To improve the performance characteristics of asphalt concrete oil sludge from oil company Zhaik Munay LLP (Uralsk) was used as an additive. Oil sludge was added to the asphalt concrete mixture in amounts of 5, 10 and 15%. When using 5% oil sludge, no significant changes in the properties of asphalt concrete are observed. An addition of 15% of oil went to the reduction of maximum efficiency during compression (0.03% by volume) and shear resistance by the efficiency of internal friction coefficient (0.01% by volume). The optimal amount is to use 10% oil sludge, at the same time, the compressive strength increases by 0.07% by volume, water resistance increases (0.02% by volume), water saturation decreases by 0.28% by volume, which has a positive effect on the quality of asphalt concrete. The properties of asphalt concrete before and after adding oil sludge were studied: compressive strength, water resistance, water saturation, shear resistance. It was concluded that it is advisable to use oil sludge as an additive. A technology for producing asphalt concrete mixture using oil sludge has been developed, which allows reducing its cost.
