Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue is a follow-up of the first Special Issue, entitled “Seismic Analysis and Design of Building Structures”, published in Buildings.
Earthquakes are one of the most severe natural disasters. They induce significant damage and even the collapse of building structures. As a result, it is crucial to accurately analyze the seismic performance of building structures. In addition, in some countries, such as China, all new building structures should be designed in consideration of the influence of earthquakes, and the criticality of seismic design should be emphasized. In all, seismic analysis and the design of building structures are fundamental, traditional, and crucial aspects of civil engineering, and are therefore worthy of investigation.
This Special Issue aims to highlight the recent advances in seismic analysis and the design of building structures. Topics in this Special Issue may include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Seismic analysis of building structures;
- Seismic design of building structures;
- Seismic performance improvement of building structures.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Buildings is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
