Built Environment Project and Asset Management

BEPAM deliberates on, disseminates and validates cutting edge research and development in construction project management and infrastructure asset management, given the increasingly critical intersections and convergence between these domains, e.g. with increasing ‘whole life’ focus and sustainability imperatives. It connects both established and upcoming researchers with progressive practitioners in these fields and proactively links research and practitioner communities worldwide. BEPAM targets interface issues between project management and asset management of building and civil engineering infrastructure, but also welcomes papers that may focus on either project management or asset management issues. Target areas include but are not limited to the following: • Project planning and project impact assessments • Infrastructure demand analysis (with emphasis on sustainability) • Stakeholder management (including appropriate engagement) • Procurement management (with longer-term criteria, e.g. in public private partnerships etc.) • Design management (including whole life considerations) • Construction management (including whole life considerations) • Infrastructure and societal needs • Sustainable infrastructure and life cycle optimisation • Critical infrastructure protection and disaster mitigation management • Preventive maintenance, asset rehabilitation and replacement management.

SJR

The SJR is a size-independent prestige indicator that ranks journals by their 'average prestige per article'. It is based on the idea that 'all citations are not created equal'. SJR is a measure of scientific influence of journals that accounts for both the number of citations received by a journal and the importance or prestige of the journals where such citations come from It measures the scientific influence of the average article in a journal, it expresses how central to the global scientific discussion an average article of the journal is.

Citations per document

This indicator counts the number of citations received by documents from a journal and divides them by the total number of documents published in that journal. The chart shows the evolution of the average number of times documents published in a journal in the past two, three and four years have been cited in the current year. The two years line is equivalent to journal impact factor ™ (Thomson Reuters) metric.
