Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The science and technology of civil engineering structures are closely related to the development of the economy, which profoundly affects the sustainable progress of human environments and societies. Many new structures, materials, and technologies have emerged in recent years, and introducing these into civil engineering structures has complex and diverse challenges. Moreover, practical engineering experience in civil engineering is more beneficial than theory; engineering accidents often reveal new and unforeseen factors that trigger the research and development of new possibilities. For these reasons, it is worthwhile to explore which direction civil engineering structures will develop and what kind of development trend this will present.
The main aim of this Special Issue is to explore the trends and prospects in civil engineering structures. Topics include but are not limited to:
- New high-performance structural systems;
- Civil engineering integrated disaster prevention and mitigation technology;
- Design, construction, and O&M technologies for building structures based on whole-life performance;
- Underground space structure construction technology;
- Structural health monitoring;
- Performance enhancement technology for existing structures;
- The intelligent architecture system;
- Structure design theory and method;
- A green eco-structure system;
- Composite, new material applications.

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.
