History Journal of Civil Engineering and Management formerly known as Statyba 8722; Civil Engineering (Vol. 18722;7, 19958722;2001, ISSN 1392-1525) is published from 2002 instead of the previous research proceedings of Lithuanian high schools: Lithuanian Proceedings in Mechanics (No. 18722;33, 1967-1994, ISSN 0460-2242), Reinforced Concrete Structures (No.18722;16, 19678722;1989, ISSN 0372-3070), Building Materials and Structures (Vol. 18722;9, 19718722;1981, ISSN 0202-3210) Building Structures (Vol. 108722;20, 19838722;1995, ISSN 0208-2500), Building Economy and Organization (Vol. 18722;17, 19718722;1990, ISSN 0202-3210), Building Economy and Management (Vol. 18, 1993, ISSN 0208-2497), Construction Technology and Management (Vol. 18722;7, 19848722;1993), Structural Repair and Strengthening (No. 1 and 2, 1992 and 1995). Aim and ScopeJournal of Civil Engineering and Management is a peer-reviewed quarterly journal which provides an international forum for the dissemination of the latest original research, achievements and developments in all areas of civil engineering and management. The journal aims to provide a multidisciplinary forum for researches, designers, users and manufacturers involved in the different fields of civil engineering and management. The topics include: building materials and structures,structural mechanics and physics,geotechnical engineering,road and bridge engineering,urban engineering and economy,constructions technology, economy and management,information technologies in construction,fire protection, thermoinsulation and renovation of buildings,labour safety in construction.Publications published in Journal of Civil Engineering and Management are original articles presenting new information and reviews. These publications provide essential ideas and information that will help for new scientific inquiries and improve competency, efficiency and productivity in world markets.

The Journal of Civil Structural Health Monitoring (JCSHM) publishes articles to advance the understanding and the application of health monitoring methods for the condition assessment and management of the civil infrastructure systems.JCSHM serves as a focal point for international sharing of knowledge and experience in technologies impacting the discipline of Civionics and Civil Structural Health Monitoring, especially in terms of load capacity ratings and service life estimation.Original articles to further the state-of-the-art in diagnostics, and prognostics for civil infrastructure systems including highways, bridges, buildings, airports, seaports, railroads, water resources systems, oil and gas pipelines, and others are welcomed.There is an important role for papers that address the application (successful or from a lesson learned aspect) of principles. This is of course the key facet of engineering as opposed to basic science - engineers take ideas and develop them into applications and use in the field.It shall be noted that the quality of the journal is based on peer review. The Editors welcome to hear about the reader’s opinions and citations.

The Journal of Constructional Steel Research provides an international forum for the presentation and discussion of the latest developments in structural steel research and their applications. It is aimed not only at researchers but also at those likely to be most affected by research results, i.e. designers and fabricators. Original papers of a high standard dealing with all aspects of steel research including theoretical and experimental research on elements, assemblages, connection and material properties are considered for publication.Those presenting research findings in a form suitable for practical use are especially welcome. Papers reporting work in progress will also be included, provided the long-term practical implications of the research are evident, as will state-of-the-art papers, or those by designers and fabricators dealing with issues bearing directly on research.The journal will also present technical notes, book reviews, discussions and letters to the Editor. It is intended that at intervals summaries will be included indicating current research activities throughout the world, and reports of conferences and meetings related specifically to constructional steelwork. Announcements of conference and symposia are also included in the form of a calendar.

The Journal of Earthquake Engineering is a publication of peer-reviewed papers on research and development in analytical, experimental and field studies of earthquakes from an engineering seismology as well as a structural engineering viewpoint. The Journal combines the three most important ingredients for a successful technical publication; the highest possible technical quality, speed of publication and competitive subscription rates. The journal draws on research and development work from engineering communities worldwide in the fields of earthquake engineering and engineering seismology. Work on experimental, analytical, design, and field studies will be considered for publication. The following is a nonexhaustive list of topics considered to be within the scope of the journal: * Historical seismicity * Tectonics and seismology * Strong-motion studies * Soil dynamics and foundations * Site effects and geotechnical aspects * Dynamic soil-structure interaction * Foundation design for earthquake loading * Seismic response of buildings * Seismic response of bridges and other special structures * Lifelines earthquake engineering * Passive and active systems for earthquake protection * Repair and strengthening * Earthquake disaster mitigation and emergency planning * Case histories and field studies * Seismic sea-waves (Tsunamis) Original state-of-the-art papers are also welcome. Timely papers on field investigations following damaging earthquakes will be considered for accelerated review and publication. Also, the journal extends a special invitation to authors of short communications of new research findings that may not have been developed sufficiently to warrant full-length papers.
