1. What do we publish?
1.1 Aims & Scope
Before submitting your manuscript to Indoor and Built Environment, please ensure you have read the Aims & Scope.
1.2 Article Types
Indoor and Built Environment considers the following kinds of article for publication:
Editorials: These will normally be published by the Editor accompanying with an issue; however, in some cases the Editor may invite contributions from other authors on topics related to a special issue of the journal or a special event at the time of publication.
Original papers: Original research findings, designs and new developments relevant to the scope of the journal will be published after acceptance, as recommended by the peer review.
Reviews: Authoritative reviews will be published from both invited experts and by direct submission. In both cases, the work will be subject to editorial peer review.
Opinion: Short articles, which stress an original point of view of a controversial nature. Matters of a political or lobbying nature should not be considered under this heading.
Case Reports: Articles which do not present new findings or original research, but are case studies illustrating problems related to particular types of built environment or methods of investigations of building related problems.
Book Reviews: From time to time books which the Editor thinks may be of interest to the readership will be reviewed. Publishers wishing to have a book reviewed should send information to the Editor-in-Chief.
Correspondence: Matters arising from articles published in the journal.
Standards, Guidelines and Policy papers
1.3 Writing your paper
The SAGE Author Gateway has some general advice and on how to get published, plus links to further resources.
1.3.1 Make your article discoverable

For information and guidance on how best to title your article, write your abstract and select your keywords, have a look at this page on the Gateway: How to Help Readers Find Your Article Online.
2. Editorial policies
2.1 Peer review policy
Indoor and Built Environment operates a conventional single-blind reviewing policy in which the reviewer’s name is always concealed from the submitting author. All manuscripts are reviewed as rapidly as possible, and an editorial decision is generally reached within 6-8 weeks of submission.
As part of the submission process you will be asked to provide the names of 3 peers who could be called upon to review your manuscript. Recommended reviewers should be experts in their fields and should be able to provide an objective assessment of the manuscript. Please be aware of any conflicts of interest when recommending reviewers. Examples of conflicts of interest include (but are not limited to) the below:
The reviewer should have no prior knowledge of your submission
The reviewer should not have recently collaborated with any of the authors
Reviewer nominees from the same institution as any of the authors are not permitted
Please note that the Editors are not obliged to invite any recommended/opposed reviewers to assess your manuscript.
Indoor and Built Environment is committed to delivering high quality, fast peer-review for your paper, and as such has partnered with Publons. Publons is a third party service that seeks to track, verify and give credit for peer review. Reviewers for the journal can opt in to Publons in order to claim their reviews or have them automatically verified and added to their reviewer profile. Reviewers claiming credit for their review will be associated with the relevant journal, but the article name, reviewer’s decision and the content of their review is not published on the site. For more information visit the Publons website.
The Editor or members of the Editorial Board may occasionally submit their own manuscripts for possible publication in the journal. In these cases, the peer review process will be managed by alternative members of the Board and the submitting Editor/Board member will have no involvement in the decision-making process.
