Journal of Stone and Construction Materials follows an open-access policy, meaning no restrictions exist on access to the articles published in the journal.
The journal accepts research articles, review papers, case studies, short reports, and technical notes from authors worldwide. We aim to enhance the journal's scientific standing and promote collaboration between Iranian researchers and their international counterparts.
- The papers focusing on Building Stones and Construction Materials will be prioritized for publication in this journal; however, other investigations from the following areas of science (but not limited to) are also accepted for publication:
1) Mining Engineering (Exploration, Exploitation, Mineral Processing, and Rock Mechanics)
2) Civil Engineering (Geotechnical Engineering, Geomechanics, Structural Engineering, and other related majors)
3) Petroleum Engineering (Geomechanics, Drilling, Exploration, Production, and Reservoir)
4) Geology (Petroleum Geology, Petrology, Groundwater, Hydrogeology, Structural Geology, and other related majors)
5) Geoscience-related Majors (Including Geostatistics, Geophysics, Geochemistry, GIS, and Remote Sensing)
6) Environmental Issues Associated with Mining, Civil, and Petroleum Engineering Activities
7) Architectural Engineering
