The Practice Periodical on Structural Design and Construction publishes articles about practical solutions to structural design problems and construction challenges of interest to practitioners. Articles may be of any length. Those reporting on small and medium-sized projects will be welcomed. Photographs are desirable; graphs, tables, and lengthy formulas are discouraged. The editors are not interested in what researchers have to say to one another; although articles must be technically sound, the overriding question in the editors' minds when considering a submission is whether the article will be of interest to a significant number of practicing engineers and contractors.

One of the oldest and most respected periodicals in the field, the Journal of Structural Engineering has a history of reporting on fundamental knowledge that advances the state-of-the-art and state-of-the-practice in structural engineering. Authors discuss the art and science of structural modeling and design; develop, apply and interpret the results of novel analytical, computational and experimental simulation techniques; propose new structural systems and study the merits of existing ones; pioneer methods for maintenance, rehabilitation and monitoring of existing structures; and investigate the properties of engineering materials as related to structural behavior. Papers making a fundamental contribution in the field of structural engineering at the intersection of structural engineering and other disciplines are welcome.

The Journal of Surveying Engineering covers the broad spectrum of surveying and mapping activities encountered in modern geomatics practice. It includes traditional topics such as construction surveys, geodetic and control surveys, photogrammetric mapping, engineering layout, deformation measurements, precise alignment, boundary surveying, adjustment computations, uncertainty analysis, and hydrographic surveying. It also includes newer developments pertinent to the surveying engineering community such as 3D laser scanning\lidar; computer vision-enhanced photogrammetry (e.g., structure from motion, multi-view stereo); advanced topographic and bathymetric mapping technologies; satellite positioning; remote sensing; spatial database design; quality assurance; information management within geographic information systems (GIS); building information modeling (BIM) and civil integrated management (CIM) platforms; computer applications involving modeling, data structures, algorithms, and information processing; digital mapping; coordinate systems; cartographic representations; and the role of surveying engineering professionals in a geospatially empowered information society. Given the broad reach of these various aspects of geomatics, all submitted manuscripts considered for publication must show a clear advance within and relevance to the field of surveying engineering.

The Journal of Sustainable Water in the Built Environment presents activity and research developments in water issues, challenges, and opportunities throughout the developed landscape. The scope covers sustainable stormwater management and broader water systems interactions. Subjects include urban stormwater quantity, quality, hydrology, characterization, treatability, and impacts; water harvesting; urban water ecosystem services; sustainable urban watershed management; urban streams; combined sewer overflow/stormwater interactions; urban energy/water interactions; on-site/decentralized water and wastewater systems, life cycle analysis; and related policy, implementation, and economics. All papers are encouraged to have design or regulatory implications that are applicable to moving the profession forward.
