《結構工程進展》是一本同行評審的期刊，旨在為國際結構工程界當前感興趣的領域的土木工程結構（如橋梁、建筑物和海上平臺）的前沿研究提供主要出版渠道。期刊目前的重點領域由編輯定期審查，具體如下：（a）復合材料和其他新興材料的結構使用；（b）結構系統的性能；（c）極端條件下的結構（例如地震、強風、火災和爆炸等）；（d）基于性能的結構工程；（e）生命周期結構工程；（f）績效評估的結構健康監測；（g）結構工程的可持續性。盡管有這些重點領域，在結構工程的其他領域具有重大影響或持久價值的論文也受到歡迎。接受發表在期刊上的論文取決于手稿是一部未發表的作品，對期刊讀者當前感興趣的特定主題提出了重要的原創貢獻或深入的最新評論。除了全文之外，還可以發表簡短的技術說明、討論和書評。

Advances in Structural Engineering is a peer-reviewed journal that aims to provide a major publication channel for cutting-edge research on civil engineering structures (e.g. bridges, buildings and offshore platforms) in areas of significant current interest to the international structural engineering community. The current focus areas of the journal, which are periodically reviewed by the editors, are as follows:(a) Structural use of composite and other emerging materials;(b) Behavior of structural systems;(c) Structures under extreme conditions (e.g. earthquakes, strong winds, fires and blasts etc.);(d) Performance-based structural engineering;(e) Life-cycle structural engineering;(f) Structural health monitoring for performance assessment; and(g) Sustainability in structural engineering.Notwithstanding these focus areas, papers of significant impact or lasting value in other areas of structural engineering are also welcome.Acceptance of a paper for publication in the journal is subjected to the manuscript being an unpublished work presenting a significant original contribution or an in-depth state-of-the-art review of a specific topic of significant current interest to the journal’s readership. Apart from full-length papers, short technical notes, discussions, and book reviews may also be published.
