Aims & Scope:
BUILDING RESEARCH & INFORMATION (BRI) is a leading international refereed journal focussed on buildings and their supporting systems. Unique to BRI is a focus on a holistic, transdisciplinary approach to buildings and the complexity of issues involving the built environment with other systems over the course of their life: planning, briefing, design, construction, occupation and use, property exchange and evaluation, maintenance, alteration and end of life. Published articles provide conceptual and evidence-based approaches which reflect the complexity and linkages between cultural, environmental, economic, social, organisational, quality of life, health, well-being, design and engineering of the built environment. BRI's wide scope embraces:

the linkages between the built, natural, social and economic environments, with an emphasis on the interactions between theory, policy and practice: impacts on ecologies, resources (water, energy, air, materials, building stocks, etc), sustainable development (social, economic, environmental and natural capitals) and climate change (mitigation and adaptation)

the (design, technical, social, organisational, economic) performance, impacts, assessment, contributions, improvement and value of buildings, building stocks and related systems

the supply chain capabilities to innovate, design, create, maintain and improve the performance of both buildings and products

changing demands and aspirations for architectural design, development and property

formulation of public policy; research, academic and innovation capabilities; organisational structures and networks; engagement between research users, policy makers and practitioners to effectively support the above scope and objectives

BRI publishes articles of the highest quality based on original, cutting-edge, well-documented innovative research of significance to the international community. The journal also publishes original information papers and detailed innovative case studies of international significance. Well-argued responses to papers appear in a ‘Forum' section and in-depth consideration of significant books is published in a ‘Review' section. All papers undergo BRI's rigorous, highly selective double-blind refereeing procedures. In addition to a responsive mode for these submissions, the journal regularly commissions special issues on cross-cutting themes.

BRI's approach to building research, innovation and feedback is recognized and endorsed for its excellence, relevance, scope and depth by numerous professional and learned societies.
