Journal of Sustainable Construction Materials and Technologies (JSCMT) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal established in 2016 and supported by Yıldız Technical University. It publishes articles in English and follows a single-blind peer-review process, ensuring high-quality research dissemination. JSCMT releases four issues annually—March, June, September, and December—covering a wide range of article types, including research articles, review papers, case studies, technical notes, letters to the editor, invited papers, and book reviews. The journal is committed to promoting research in sustainable construction practices and is indexed in several databases, including Scopus, DOAJ, EBSCO, TR Dizin, and CrossRef. It does not charge publication fees, and all articles are available under the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International License (CC BY-NC 4.0). The average time from submission to acceptance is approximately 8-12 weeks, followed by 4-6 weeks from acceptance to publication. JSCMT aims to bridge the gap between academia and industry by encouraging interdisciplinary contributions that enhance sustainability in construction, focusing on key research areas such as sustainable materials, circular economy, energy efficiency, durability, digitalization, climate resilience, and environmental impact assessment..
