Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In an era of growing environmental awareness and rapid technological advancement, this special issue aims to explore the intersection of cutting-edge materials and sustainable structures, offering a platform for researchers and experts to share their innovative findings.
This special issue invites contributions that delve into a wide spectrum of topics, from novel materials with enhanced mechanical properties to sustainable design methodologies and construction techniques. We welcome research that addresses both the theoretical aspects and practical applications in the fields of architecture, civil engineering and material science.
Our mission is to bridge the gap between high performance and sustainability, fostering discussions and discoveries that promise to revolutionise the way we build and develop our environment. Whether your focus is on eco-friendly building materials, resilient infrastructure or breakthroughs in structural engineering, we encourage you to submit your work and be a part of this exciting initiative.
In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research areas may include (but are not limited to) the following:
- High-performance construction materials (e.g., fibre-reinforced polymer, stainless steel and high-strength steel);
- Sustainable building materials (e.g., bamboo fibre reinforced concrete);
- Sustainable structures;
- Novel structural system (e.g., composite structures);
- Environmental impact assessment;
- Material recyclability (rubberised concrete);
- Renewable energy;
- Higher education in sustainable materials and structures
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Buildings is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
