Scope
Aim and Scope
The Journal of Sustainable Construction Materials and Project Management (JSCMPM) acts as a leading international platform for advancing knowledge and innovation in the sustainable use of construction materials and the effective management of construction projects. It aims to promote evidence-based solutions to urgent challenges in resource efficiency, environmental stewardship, climate resilience, and equitable development in the built environment. By encouraging interdisciplinary research and practice, the journal supports the global effort to achieve the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly in promoting sustainable cities and communities, responsible consumption and production, resilient infrastructure, sustainable transportation systems, mobility, and climate action.
JSCMPM welcomes original research articles, technical notes, review papers, and case studies that present novel insights, systematic analyses, and practical applications in the following key areas of interest, including, but not limited to:
Sustainable and Alternative Construction Materials: Research on recycled aggregates, quarry dust, fly ash, calcined earthen resources, industrial by-products, innovative admixtures, and composite materials that reduce environmental impact and improve construction efficiency; including life-cycle assessment, durability studies, and circular economy practices.
Construction Project Management: Advances in construction productivity, resource optimization, quality and safety management, sustainable procurement, risk and contract management, logistics, digital transformation (e.g., BIM, digital twins), and waste minimization in project delivery.
Transportation Engineering: Studies addressing sustainable transportation infrastructure, encompassing innovative pavement and roadway materials, traffic flow analysis and modeling, smart and green mobility solutions, safety and logistics management, and other strategies that enhance efficiency, resilience, and environmental sustainability of transportation networks, particularly in developing and climate-vulnerable regions, in alignment with the SDGs.
Infrastructure Systems and Applications: Sustainable approaches for roads, bridges, railways, ports, harbors, airports, and other critical infrastructure, integrating new materials and methods to improve resilience, climate adaptation, and low-carbon development.
Policy, Economics, and Education for Sustainability: Insights on regulatory frameworks, financing models, incentives, educational initiatives, and capacity-building strategies that promote the adoption of sustainable materials and project management practices in the construction industry.
By providing a platform for rigorous research and knowledge exchange across academia, industry, and government, JSCMPM supports evidence-based innovations that advance the construction and transportation sector’s contribution to sustainable development.
How to Submit your Manuscript
Under the Information section on the right, please follow the instructions. Submit your manuscript in IMRAD format in a Word file, not in PDF. Make sure your tables and figures are editable and not embedded in images. Likewise, provide the author's ORCID ID number, which distinguishes individual researchers and contributors from one another — especially across publications, datasets, and affiliations.
Publication Frequency
The Journal of Sustainable Construction Materials and Project Management (JSCMPM) is published biannually (twice a year), with issues released in:
- June (First Issue)
- December (Second Issue)
Special issues may be organized on emerging themes and collaborative research projects with academic and industry partners.
Copyright and Licensing
The corresponding author must submit a signed Author Declaration and Publishing Agreement confirming that the manuscript is original, has not been submitted, published, or accepted elsewhere, and that all co-authors have approved the submission. The Agreement grants the Journal of Sustainable Construction Materials & Project Management (JSCMPM) first publication rights and allows the work to be distributed under the journal’s open-access license (Creative Commons BY-NC-SA license), while the authors retain copyright of their work.
All published research articles are openly and immediately accessible without restriction. There are no charges or fees for submitting manuscripts or publishing accepted scientific papers.
Scientific Publishing and Open Science Platform
Cagayan State University - Carig Campus publishes JSCMPM, while SCIPEDIA hosts the journal. It provides a platform for researchers, graduating students, and faculty members to publish their work through its open-science research publishing platform. It serves as an innovative, collaborative social network for students, researchers, scientists, and technologists to disseminate knowledge and expertise in civil engineering and architecture, as well as allied areas.
Indexing and Abstracting Status
The Journal of Sustainable Construction Materials and Project Management (JSCMPM) is currently undergoing the indexing process with several major academic databases. The editorial board is actively complying with the requirements of recognized abstracting and indexing services to enhance the journal’s visibility, scholarly reputation, and accessibility.
Once approvals are secured, the journal will be included in relevant indexing platforms, ensuring that published articles are widely discoverable by researchers, academics, practitioners, and policymakers in the fields of Sustainable Construction Materials and Project Management (JSCMPM).
Official updates will be released as soon as confirmations are received from the indexing agencies.
In the meantime, the Editorial Board is pleased to invite the submission of manuscripts for peer review and online publication in the Journal of Sustainable Construction Materials and Project Management (JSCMPM).
SCIPEDIA and Institutional Stewardship
Maintained and supervised by SCIPEDIA and Cagayan State University [Carig Campus], the Journal of Sustainable Construction Materials and Project Management (JSCMPM) serves as a guardian of quality and ethics, ensuring academic integrity, adherence to international publishing standards, and the open-access dissemination of high-quality research.
