BUILDINGS & CITIES is an international, open access, peer-reviewed, academic journal publishing high-quality research and analysis on the interplay between the different scales of the built environment: buildings, blocks, neighbourhoods, cities, national building stocks and infrastructures. The journal focuses on built environment policy, practices and outcomes and the range of economic, environmental, political, social and technological issues occurring over the full life cycle. It provides a platform for new ideas, innovative approaches and research-based insights that can help improve the built environment. BUILDINGS & CITIES aims to make research accessible and relevant to academics, policymakers, practitioners, clients, and occupants. Our wide scope embraces: SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS (SDGs) & CLIMATE CHANGE ENERGY POLICY PRACTICE, PERFORMANCE, OUTCOMES & IMPACTS SOCIETAL DEMANDS & CAPABILITIES The full list of topics covered within the journal's scope can be found on the B&C Community Site. Papers are published in the following formats: Research articles (up to 8,000 words) present the latest research. Synthesis articles (up to 8,500 words) critically review the state of knowledge in key areas of interest. Methods articles (up to 5,000 words) describe the development of innovative research methods and practices; new ways of understanding research. Replication articles (up to 4,000 words) test previous findings and validate existing data sets. This can report on "failure" results. Registered reports are a submission option for replication studies, with peer review of the research design prior to the data collection. Policy Analysis articles (up to 3,000 words) put forward evidence-based analysis of particular policy approaches. Briefing Notes (up to 2,500 words) make research results and their implications on key built environment topics accessible to the end users of research: policymakers, practitioners, clients or occupants.
