Call for papers

About the journal

In 2019, the French Academic Civil Engineering Association (AUGC) created the Academic Journal of Civil Engineering (AJCE), ISSN 2680-1000. This journal is a multidisciplinary, open-access, peer-reviewed journal publishing theoretical and practical advances related to the broad spectrum of civil engineering, encompassing all related sub-topics. It includes but is not necessarily restricted to:

Building Materials, Structural Engineering, Constructions Technology, Construction Management, Building Construction and Renovation, Geotechnical Engineering, Geophysics and soil analysis, Risk Management, Transportation Engineering, Urban Engineering, Architecture, Sustainable construction, Construction Economy, Construction Regulation, Property and Asset Management, Facility Management, Building Energy, Forensic Engineering...

Call for Papers

As your research interests may cover the topic, we are pleased to invite you to contribute a paper to AJCE. By submitting high quality papers, you support the AUGC and ensure to your work a wide distribution within our community. In addition, AJCE is a totally free open-access journal, referenced in scientific databases (all accepted papers will receive a DOI code).

Articles intended for AJCE should be submitted online using our Web-based submission tool. To submit your paper online, please go to https://journal.augc.asso.fr/index.php/ajce and upload your article and associated files.

Format: Article should be 6-8 pages long, using dedicated template (Word and Latex templates are available)

Language: English should be preferred even if articles in French will be accepted.

Corresponding author: Clearly indicate who is responsible for correspondence at all stages of refereeing and publication, including post-publication.

Requirements: Submission of an article implies that the work described has not been published previously, that it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere, that its publication is approved by all authors and that, if accepted, it will not be published elsewhere in the same form, in English or in any other language.

Review: Contributions are analyzed by two or more reviewers to ensure both accuracy and relevance, and revisions to the paper may thus be required. The editorial team is committed to providing a fast and efficient review process. The first review turn from will be made within two months. On acceptance, contributions are subject to editorial amendment. 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 reviewers' reports. Revised manuscripts returned after four months will be considered as new submissions subject to full re-review. The editor reserves the right to return, prior to refereeing, any manuscripts which do not conform to the instructions for manuscript preparation, as well as papers which do not fit the scope of the journal.

Double-blind review: This journal uses double-blind review, which means that both reviewer and author identities are concealed from the reviewers, and vice versa, throughout the review process.

Kind regards,

Academic Journal of Civil Engineering
