Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cementitious composite materials have attracted significant attention in the construction industry due to their excellent mechanical properties and durability. This Special Issue launched by Buildings aims to publish cutting-edge research in the field of cementitious composite materials, fostering international academic exchange and contributing to the research and applications in this area. This Special Issue will focus on, but is not limited to, the following topics:
- Fiber-reinforced cementitious composite materials;
- Mechanical properties of cementitious composite materials;
- Durability of cementitious composite materials;
- Performance of cementitious composite materials under extreme conditions;
- Cementitious composite materials in structural applications;
- Sustainable development of cementitious composite materials.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Buildings is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
