About the journal
Construction & Building Materials provides an international forum for the dissemination of research and development in the field of construction and building materials and their application in new works and repair practice. The journal publishes a wide range of research and application papers which describe laboratory and numerical investigations or report on full scale projects.
Construction and Building Materials also publishes detailed case studies and review articles, as well as short communications and discussions.
The materials and technology covered include: cement, concrete reinforcement, bricks and mortars, additives, corrosion technology, ceramics, timber, steel, polymers, glass fibres, recycled materials and by-products, sealants, adhesives.
The scope of Construction and Building Materials includes, but is not restricted to, new works and repair and maintenance of the following: bridges, high-rise buildings, dams, civil engineering structures, silos, highway pavements, tunnels, water containment structures, sewers, roofing, housing, coastal defences.
At a time when the pressure is on all engineers, architects and contractors to optimise use of new materials and up-to-date technologies, Construction and Building Materials provides essential information that will help improve efficiency, productivity and competitiveness in world markets. It is therefore vital reading for all professionals and academics involved with research into, or specification of, building materials.
Months of publication: February, April, May, June, August, September, October, December.
Index bound in last issue of calendar year.
Instructions to Authors
Submission of PapersAuthors are requested to submit their original manuscript and figures with three copies to one of the Editors:
Editor-in-Chief: Professor M.C. Forde, Department of Civil Engineering and Building Science, Kings Buildings, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh EH9 3JL, UK;
Regional Editor: Professor L. Binda, Department of Structural Engineering, Politecnico di Milano, Piazza L. Da Vinci 32, 20133 Milano, Italy;
Regional Editor: Professor M. Ohtsu, Department of Civil & Environmental Engineering, Kumamoto University, Kurokami 2-39-1, Kumamoto 860, Japan;
Regional Editor: Dr Sami Rizkalla, North Carolina State University, Centennial Campus, Campus Box 7533, 1020 Main Campus Drive, Raleigh, NC 27695-7533, USA.
Submission of a paper implies that it has not been published previously, that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere, and that if accepted it will not be published elsewhere in the same form, in English or in any other language, without the written consent of the publisher.
Review Process: All contributions are read by two or more referees to ensure both accuracy and relevance, and revisions to the script may thus be required. On acceptance, contributions are subject to editorial amendment to suit house style. When a manuscript is returned for revision prior to final acceptance, the revised version must be submitted as soon as possible after the author's receipt of the referees' reports. Revised manuscripts returned after four months will be considered as new submissions subject to full re-review.
Types of ContributionsContributions falling into the following categories will be considered for publication:
- Original high-quality research papers (preferably no more than 20 double line spaced manuscript pages, including tables and illustrations)
- Short Communications, for rapid publication (no more that 10 double line spaced manuscript pages including tables and figures)
Construction and Building Materials also publishes book reviews, conference reports and a calendar of forthcoming events. Contributions of this type should be sent to the Publishing Editor at Elsevier Science.
Manuscript PreparationGeneral: Manuscripts must be typewritten, double-spaced with wide margins on one side of white paper. Good quality printouts with a font size of 12 or 10 pt are required. The corresponding author should be identified (include a Fax number and E-mail address). Full postal addresses must be given for all co-authors. Number every sheet of paper. Authors should consult a recent issue of the journal for style if possible. An electronic copy of the paper should accompany the final version. The Editors reserve the right to adjust style to certain standards of uniformity. Authors should retain a copy of their manuscript since we cannot accept responsibility for damage or loss of papers. Original manuscripts are discarded one month after publication unless the Publisher is asked to return original material after use.
Abstracts: A self-contained abstract of approximately 100 words, outlining in a single paragraph the aims, scope and conclusions of the paper, also include three keywords, for indexing purposes.
Text: Follow this order when typing manuscripts: Title, Authors, Affiliations, Abstract, Keywords, Main text (Introduction, Methods, Results and Discussion), Acknowledgements, Appendix, References, Figure Captions and then Tables. Do not import the Figures or Tables into your text. The corresponding author should be identified with an asterisk and footnote. All other footnotes (except for table footnotes) should be identified with superscript Arabic numbers. Trade names should have a capital letter.
Units: All measurements and data should be given in SI units or, if SI units do not exist, in an internationally accepted unit. If you use any symbol or unit that may not be generally recognized, please include an explanatory footnote the first time it is used, to help the referees, editors and readers.
Symbols: It is helpful to identify Greek symbols by name in the margin the first time they appear. Abbreviations and acronyms should only be used for unwieldy terms and names which occur frequently in the manuscript. Abbreviations should be used consistently throughout the text, and must be clearly defined in full on first use.
Maths: Detailed mathematical discussion should be placed in an appendix. Equations and formulae should be typewritten wherever possible. Equations should be numbered consecutively with Arabic numerals in parentheses on the right hand side of the page. Special symbols should be identified in the margin, and the meaning of all symbols should be explained in the text where they first occur. If you use several symbols, a list of definitions (not necessarily for publication) will help the editor. Type or mark mathematical equations exactly as they should appear in print. Journal style for letter symbols is as follows: variables, italic type (indicated by underlining); constants, roman type; matrices and vectors, bold type (indicated by wavy underlining)
References: All publications cited in the text should be presented in a list of references following the text of the manuscript. In the text refer to references by a number in square brackets on the line (e.g. Since Mukhopadhyaya [1]), and the full reference should be given in a numerical list at the end of the paper.
References should be given in the following form:
1. Mukhopadhyaya P, Swamy RN, Lynsdale CJ. Influence of aggressive exposure conditions on the behaviour of adhesive bonded concrete- GFRP joints. Constr Build Mater 1998;12(8):427-446.
2. Swamy RN, Mukhopadhyaya P. Role and effectiveness of non-metallic plates in strengthening and upgrading concrete structures. In: Taerwe L, editor. Non-metallic (FRP) reinforcement for concrete structures. London: E & FN Spon, 1995. p. 473-482.
3. Green MF, Soudki KA. FRP strengthened concrete structures in cold regions. In: Meier U, Betti R, editors. Proceedings of International Conference on Recent Advances in Bridge Engineering - Advanced Rehabilitation. Switzerland: W-EMPA Dudendorf, 1997. p. 219-226.
Illustrations: All illustrations should be provided in camera-ready form, suitable for reproduction (which may include reduction) without retouching. Photographs, charts and diagrams are all to be referred to as "Figure(s)" and should be numbered consecutively in the order to which they are referred. They should accompany the manuscript, but should not be included within the text. All illustrations should be clearly marked on the back with the figure number and the author's name. All figures are to have a caption. Captions should be supplied on a separate sheet.
Line drawings: Good quality printouts on white paper produced in black ink are required. All lettering, graph lines and points on graphs should be sufficiently large and bold to permit reproduction when the diagram has been reduced to a size suitable for inclusion in the journal. Dye-line prints or photocopies are not suitable for reproduction. Do not use any type of shading on computer-generated illustrations.
Photographs: Original photographs must be supplied as they are to be reproduced (e.g. black and white or colour). If necessary, a scale should be marked on the photograph. Please note that photocopies of photographs are not acceptable.
Colour: Where colour figures are required the author will be charged for colour printing at the current colour printing costs.
Tables: Tables should be numbered consecutively and given a suitable caption and each table typed on a separate sheet. Footnotes to tables should be typed below the table and should be referred to by superscript lowercase letters. No vertical rules should be used. Tables should not duplicate results presented elsewhere in the manuscript, (e.g. in graphs).
Electronic submissionAuthors should submit an electronic copy of their paper with the final version of the manuscript. The electronic copy should match the hardcopy exactly. Always keep a backup copy of the electronic file for reference and safety. Full details of electronic submission and formats can be obtained from http://www.elsevier.nl/locate/disksub or from Author Services at Elsevier Science.
ProofsProofs will be sent to the author (first named author if no corresponding author is identified of multi-authored papers) and should be returned within 48 hours of receipt. Corrections should be restricted to typesetting errors; any others may be charged to the author. Any queries should be answered in full. Please note that authors are urged to check their proofs carefully before return, since the inclusion of late corrections cannot be guaranteed. Proofs are to be returned to the Log-in Department, Elsevier Science, Stover Court, Bampfylde Street, Exeter, Devon, EX1 2AH, UK.
