ResearchConcrete Research Quarterly Journal has been established since 2008 and Dr. Ali Sadrmomtazi has been its editor-in-chief and director-in-Charge.
Concrete Research Journal covers below categories:
• Novelties and innovations in concrete technology
• Concrete structures
This journal has been receiving online articles and other requirements since late 2014. There is neither processing nor publication charge assumed. In addition, the journal is regularly uploaded to the website, and articles in press are uploaded on the site.
After modifications in review procedures of journal, the average processing time for final decision about submitted manuscript has been decreased to less than 3 months.
