Construction and Building Materials in Transportation

Construction and Building Materials in Transportation is a dedicated spin off journal of Construction and Building Materials, focusing on the development, characterization, performance, and application of materials used in transportation infrastructure. The journal aims to provide a specialized platform for high-quality research that advances knowledge and innovation in materials specifically designed for roads, railways, airports, bridges, tunnels, harbors, and related transportation infrastructures.

The scope of the journal includes, but is not limited to:

• Road construction materials, including asphalt, concrete, and composite materials

• Materials and technologies for railroad track systems

• Airport pavement materials and field infrastructure

• Structural materials for bridges, tunnels and harbor

• Sustainable and green materials for transportation infrastructure

• Material durability, maintenance, and life-cycle performance in transportation contexts

• Innovative and AI-aided design of transportation materials for enhanced safety and resilience

• Laboratory and field testing methods for transportation materials

• Modeling, simulation, and prediction of material performance in transportation applications

The journal is open not only to upper layers of pavements and railway tracks, but also to intermediate layers and base layers, as well as treatment materials for foundations. However, papers focused solely on the geotechnical field will not be considered for review and possible publication.

By focusing on these critical areas, Construction and Building Materials in Transportation seeks to serve researchers, engineers, practitioners, and policymakers involved in the design, construction, and maintenance of transportation infrastructure worldwide, promoting the exchange of knowledge and fostering advances that contribute to safer, more durable, and more sustainable transportation systems.
