The Asian Review of Civil Engineering (ARCE) is a half-yearly, double-blind peer-reviewed, Gold Open Access journal dedicated to the publication and dissemination of high-quality original research, review articles, and case studies across the major disciplines of civil engineering. The journal promotes theoretical, experimental, computational, and practice-oriented research in areas including structural engineering, geotechnical engineering, transportation engineering, construction engineering and management, water resources engineering, environmental engineering, surveying and geomatics, infrastructure planning, sustainable construction, building materials, and emerging technologies in civil engineering.

TARCE seeks to advance academic scholarship, engineering innovation, and professional practice by providing an international platform for researchers, academicians, engineers, and practitioners. All submitted manuscripts undergo a rigorous double-blind peer-review process by suitably qualified experts and are expected to meet internationally accepted standards of research quality, originality, ethical practice, and journal formatting requirements.
