The primary focus of Sustainability in Civil Engineering journal is the advancement of sustainable methodologies and technologies across all branches of civil engineering. We recognize that modern infrastructure must go beyond structural stability to incorporate life-cycle considerations, energy efficiency, and minimal environmental impact. The journal seeks to publish original research that offers tangible solutions to reduce the carbon footprint of the construction sector and enhance the longevity of public works.

The scope of the journal is broad yet specialized, covering key areas such as sustainable construction materials, green building design, and energy-efficient building systems. We welcome research on innovative materials like low-carbon concrete, recycled aggregates, and bio-based composites. Additionally, the journal covers resilient structural engineering, sustainable hydraulics and water resource management, and geotechnical engineering practices that prioritize soil and groundwater protection.

Furthermore, SCEJ explores the role of transportation engineering in developing low-emission mobility systems and the management of construction and demolition waste. We also encourage studies on disaster risk reduction and the creation of resilient infrastructure capable of withstanding extreme weather events. By documenting these advancements, the journal directly supports the achievement of global Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within the construction and infrastructure sectors.
