The prime objective of the EJECE is to fully document advances in International scientific and technical research in the fields of sustainable construction and soil engineering.

Manuscripts must present original studies including scientific advances. Case studies will be considered only if they relate to a clear scientific or technical innovation.

We welcome submissions in the following areas:

Geotechnical Engineering

    Rheology of geomaterials (cement, soils, rocks), natural media (muds, snow, ice, etc.) and granular materials.
    Studies of mechanical behaviour of natural media in their environment.
    Mitigation of soil-related risks.
    Soil-fluid-structure interactions, and their coupling with temperature, chemistry (degradation, etc.) and time (durability, ageing, etc.)
    Computation and design of geo-structures and engineering works.
    Major innovations arising from new experimental facilities and measurement tools (metrology and sensors in laboratories and in the field, etc), as well as the characterizing of displacement fields and of micro-meso-structures of materials (scanner, tomodensitometer, etc).
    Numerical methods (finite differences, finite elements, discrete elements, particulate methods, etc) which constitute the bases of modelling and computation of geo-structures and engineering works.

Sustainable Construction

Sustainability, Structural Design and Construction

    Experimental characterization and computational modelling of novel eco-friendly and durable structural engineering materials at various scales, including Re-cycling and up-cycling of engineering materials
    Computer aided and data driven methods for sustainable, energy and material reduced designs of engineering structures
    Digital engineering and advanced computational simulation methods for innovative circular economy concepts in structural engineering
    Digital construction technologies, automation and robotics

Submissions that fall outside of the categories outlined above, fall outside the scope of EJECE and will be rejected.
