Aims & Scope
According to its Aims and Scope, "The Journal of Structural Engineering reports on fundamental knowledge that contributes to the state-of-the-art and state-of-practice in structural engineering. Authors discuss the art and science of structural design; investigate the physical properties of engineering materials as related to structural behavior; develop methods of analysis; and study the merits of various types of structures and methods of construction."[1] The journal covers both theoretical and applied research papers in the field of structural engineering, and on fields related to both structural engineering and other disciplines[2]
History
Originally, the journals was part of the proceedings of the American Society of Civil Engineers, first published in 1873[3] The Journal started publishing separately in 1956 as part of the ASCE Journal of the Structural Division (ISSN 0044-8001). In 1983, the title was changed to the Journal of Structural Engineering (ISSN 0733-9445).
