Journal Overview

Journal of Sustainable Construction and Management (JSCM)

The Journal of Sustainable Construction and Management (JSCM) is an international, peer-reviewed scholarly journal dedicated to advancing research and practical knowledge in sustainable construction practices, infrastructure development, and environmentally responsible project management. The journal provides a platform for high-quality academic and industry-focused contributions that address the environmental, economic, and social dimensions of construction and built environment systems.

JSCM focuses on the transformation of the construction sector toward sustainability, resilience, and resource efficiency. As the global demand for infrastructure grows, the industry faces increasing pressure to reduce carbon emissions, optimize material usage, improve energy efficiency, and enhance lifecycle performance. The journal encourages research that develops innovative solutions, analytical frameworks, and policy insights to support sustainable development goals within construction and infrastructure management.

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

• Sustainable building materials and green construction technologies

• Life cycle assessment (LCA) and carbon footprint analysis

• Energy-efficient building design and performance optimization

• Sustainable infrastructure planning and asset management

• Construction waste management and circular economy practices

• Smart construction systems and digital transformation (BIM, AI, IoT)

• Risk management and resilience in infrastructure projects

• Environmental impact assessment and regulatory compliance

• Sustainable supply chain management in construction

• Project management strategies for sustainable development

JSCM promotes interdisciplinary research that integrates engineering, environmental science, management, economics, and policy perspectives. The journal values contributions that bridge theory and practice, offering evidence-based approaches that can be implemented by construction professionals, policymakers, urban planners, and infrastructure stakeholders.

All submissions undergo a rigorous peer review process to ensure methodological rigor, originality, clarity, and relevance. The journal upholds high ethical and academic standards, encouraging transparent reporting, reproducibility of methods, and responsible research practices.

JSCM serves a broad audience that includes academic researchers, civil and environmental engineers, construction managers, sustainability consultants, urban planners, policymakers, and graduate students specializing in sustainable infrastructure and built environment systems. By fostering scholarly dialogue and applied innovation, the journal aims to contribute meaningfully to the development of sustainable, resilient, and future-ready construction practices worldwide.

Through its commitment to quality and relevance, the Journal of Sustainable Construction and Management seeks to become a trusted academic resource in the evolving field of sustainable construction and infrastructure management.
