Abstract: Million tons of wasted Coco-Cola tins are produced annually in the world, huge amount is produced, especially in Iraq. Therefore, using such wasted material has a sustainable importance for environmental. This study has focused on using strips of waste aluminum. The wasted material has been obtained from Coco-Cola tins. The wasted tins were shredded into strips. These strips have average dimensions of 5 mm width and 10 mm length. Then these strips have been added (from 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5%) from the total weight of aggregate. The Marshall characteristics have been tested for reference sample (0%) of wasted aluminum strips and other different percentages. The results indicated that using 1% of these strips give acceptable values for stability, flow and density.
