1. Article types
Research Papers
Invited Review Papers
Technical Notes
New Technology Technical Notes
Book Reviews
Manuscripts should not normally exceed 12,000 word-equivalents, which is estimated as number of words counted by the Word processor + 300 x number of figures + 300 x number of tables.
Technical Notes should not exceed 5,000 word-equivalents. The main body of the paper is to be preceded by an abstract of about 150 words, as well as a list of 4 to 8 keywords.
Invited Review Papers are state-of-the-art papers written by leading researchers upon the invitation of the Editors-in-Chief. They are subjected to the same length and format requirements as Research Papers.
New Technology Technical Notes are expected to report truly new structural engineering technologies with their feasibility and potential demonstrated to a reasonable level of certainty through pilot research. The new technologies can be new structural forms, structural materials, monitoring and control technologies, etc. The emphasis here is on technological innovation rather than in-depth studies of mechanics and the development of design methods that should follow.
Both Invited Review Papers and New Technology Technical Notes will receive fast reviews to speed up the publication process. Some of these articles will be made freely accessible to non-subscribers, at the Editor’s discretion, so as to reach a wide range of interested readers.
2. Editorial policies
2.1 Peer review policy
Advances in Structural Engineering operates a conventional single-blind reviewing policy in which the reviewer’s name is always concealed from the authors.
The Editorial Team conducts a preliminary assessment of each paper submitted to Advances in Structural Engineering before it is sent out to reviewers. Papers that are marginal to the scope of the journal and/or below the minimum standard of the journal will be declined directly without going through the peer-review process. A manuscript that passes the preliminary assessment is sent to at least two reviewers to assess its suitability for publication in the journal. All manuscripts are reviewed as rapidly as possible, and an editorial decision is generally reached within 6-8 weeks of submission.
