The Journal of Civil Engineering Materials and Applications (JCEMA), in collaboration with Pontis Research Group, is pleased to announce an upcoming Special Issue on Lightweight Aggregate Concrete and Geotechnical Applications.

This special issue aims to bring together high-quality research that advances the understanding and application of lightweight aggregate (LWA) materials in structural, geotechnical, and infrastructure engineering. We welcome contributions from researchers, engineers, and practitioners working on innovative materials, sustainable construction, and resilient infrastructure.

Topics of Interest include, but are not limited to:

• Lightweight aggregate concrete and structural applications
• Geotechnical applications of lightweight aggregates
• Experimental investigations and field studies
• Numerical modeling and simulation
• Durability, performance, and sustainability
• Seismic and dynamic behavior of LWA systems
• Innovative construction techniques and case studies
• Circular economy and recycled lightweight aggregates

We invite the submission of:

• Original Research Articles
• Review Papers
• Technical Notes
• Case Studies

Submission guidelines, important dates, and the editorial board will be announced shortly.
