DESCRIPTION

Cantilever: Jurnal Penelitian dan Kajian Bidang Teknik Sipil is a peer-reviewed, high-quality journal in civil engineering that presents recent research results and literature reviews in the fields of building and structural engineering, transportation, water resources engineering and management, geotechnical engineering, construction engineering and management, environmental engineering, and architecture.

The name "Cantilever" specifically is taken from one type of structure, which is a rigid structural element that extends horizontally and is supported at only one end. It aims to signify the specialization focus of the journal content in the field of civil engineering. Besides that, this also intends to give a uniqueness to the journal where on each published cover will be presented a photograph of the cantilever structure.

The journal was first published in 2006 in the printed version. Since 2015, Cantilever has been published both in the printed and online versions (e-journal). For the online version, previously, the journal could be accessed at http://cantilever.unsri.ac.id, but since Vol. 8 No.2 (2019), the journal has been published at http://cantilever.id. This journal is managed and published by the Department of Civil Engineering and Planning, Faculty of Engineering, Sriwijaya University. The journal is published twice a year, in April and October.

OPEN ACCESS POLICY

This journal provides immediate open access to its content on the principle that making research freely available to the public supports a greater global exchange of knowledge.

This journal is an open-access journal which means that all content is freely available without charge to users or institutions. Users are allowed to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to full-text articles in this journal without asking prior permission from the publisher or author/authors. This is in accordance with the Budapest Open Access Initiative.

FOCUS AND SCOPE

The Cantilever: Jurnal Penelitian dan Kajian Bidang Teknik Sipil aims to:

  • Promote a comprehensive approach to civil engineering incorporating viewpoints of different disciplines.
  • Strengthen academic exchange with other institutions.
  • Encourage scientists, practicing engineers, and others to conduct research and other similar activities.

The journal presents the results of research and studies in the fields of civil engineering, architecture, and environmental engineering. The scope of this journal covers the topics:

  • Water resources engineering
  • Transportation
  • Geotechnical engineering
  • Building and structural engineering
  • Construction engineering and management
  • Environmental engineering
  • Architecture

PEER REVIEW PROCESS

Each paper submitted will be reviewed by at least two reviewers appointed by the editorial board. The review process uses a double-blind review system, where neither the author nor reviewers does not know the identity of each other. Received papers will be forwarded to be published (together with major or minor repairs if needed), while papers that are rejected (not according to journal criteria) will be returned to the author. The reviewers of this journal are experts in their respective fields. The reviewers give scientific valuable comments improving the contents of the manuscript. The average number of weeks between submission and publication is about 8 weeks.

PUBLICATION FREQUENCY

The journal is published twice a year in April and October. Each issue contains eight papers. Papers can be written in Indonesian or English.
