Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Structures are normally founded on soils or rocks. Soil–structure interaction is a mutual effect between the soil and the structure built on it. The mechanical behaviour of structure, especially the foundation of the structure, is greatly influenced by the soil–structure interaction. The behaviours of soils and structures and their interactions highly affect the performance of the soil–structure system. With the development of society, there have been a great number of projects involving the construction of soil–structure systems. Thus, an understanding of soil–structure interaction and its application are of great importance.
As the Guest Editors of Special Issue “Application of Soil–Structure Interaction in Construction”, we cordially invite you to submit high-quality and cutting-edge articles. The topics include, but are not limited to, the aspects as follows:
- State-of-the-art review and case studies of soil–structure systems;
- Site investigation and interpretation;
- Laboratory element tests, physical model tests, and field tests of geomaterials;
- Constitutive modelling of soil–structure systems;
- Numerical modelling of soil–structure systems (e.g., finite element, discrete element, etc.);
- Advanced monitoring and data processing technologies;
- Building structures (e.g., shallow foundation, deep foundation, etc.);
- Underground structures (e.g., deep excavation, tunnelling, pipe-jacking, etc.);
- Onshore and offshore structures (e.g., harbours, wind turbines, pipelines, etc.);
- Ground improvement methods (e.g., stone column, in situ walls, subgrade stabilisation).

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.
