New Impact Factor rating for Structural Concrete journal

04.08.2014   News

The fib’s peer-reviewed journal - Structural Concrete - now has an impact factor of 0.857. The factor has more than doubled since the last time the fib reported an impact factor score of 0.289 in June 2013. The journal publishes papers covering all aspects of the design, construction, performance in service, strengthening and demolition of concrete structures, including papers on research into the behaviour of structures and the development of design methods. All papers are subjected to rigorous peer review; the current average submission-to-acceptance time is 78 days.
