About the journal
Civil Engineering and Environmental Systems is the only Journal devoted to the discussion, dissemination and development of systems techniques and their underlying assumptions through the spectrum of civil engineering activity and environmental decision-making and management. The Journal provides a comprehensive approach to the practical application and development of ``hard'' and ``soft'' systems methodologies. covering engineering optimization, risk assessment and decision making, system identification, numerical simulation and qualitative modelling of complex systems, safety, methods of modelling uncertainty. Attention is paid to conceptual issues as well as quantitative techniques. The Journal also deals with emerging information technology techniques such as knowledge-based systems, genetic algorithms and neural networks.
The Journal offers working tools to the practising civil engineer involved in the planning, design, construction, and maintenance or operation of large scale civil engineering and environmental systems. The Journal publishes case studies, research papers, authoritative review articles, conference reports, book reviews, and a calendar of forthcoming events.

CIVIL ENGINEERING AND ENVIRONMENTAL SYSTEMS
INTRODUCTION
It is essential that authors prepare their manuscripts according to established specifications. The effectiveness of the search capabilities offered by electronic delivery will depend upon the care used by authors in preparing their manuscripts. Therefore, contributors are strongly encouraged to read these instructions carefully before preparing a manuscript for submission, and to check the manuscript for compliance with these notes before submitting it for publication.
MANUSCRIPTS
Papers should be typed with double spacing and wide (3 cm) margins on good quality paper, and submitted in triplicate to Professor C. B. Brown, or Professor P. W. Jowitt. The journal welcomes: fundamental research papers and case studies (6000 - 8000 words); review articles (intending authors should consult the editors before preparation of such articles); and research notes, of up to 3000 equivalent words intended for publishing recent advances quickly.
Submission of a paper to Civil Engineering and Environmental Systems will be taken to imply that it represents original work not previously published, that it is not being considered elsewhere for publication, and that if accepted for publication it will not be published elsewhere in the same form, in any language, without the consent of editors and publisher. It is a condition of acceptance by the editor of a typescript for publication that the publishers acquire automatically the copyright in the typescript throughout the world.
Language: Papers should be written in English
Abstract: Each paper requires an abstract of 100 - 150 words summarizing the significant coverage and findings.
Keywords: Each paper must have three to six keywords.
FIGURES
All figures should be numbered with consecutive arabic numbers, have descriptive captions, and be mentioned in the text. Keep figures separate from the text, but indicate an approximate position for each in the margin.
Preparation: Figures submitted must be of a high standard for direct reproduction. Line drawings should be prepared in black (India) ink on white paper or on tracing cloth, with all lettering and symbols included. Alternatively, good sharp photoprints ("glossies") are acceptable. Photographs intended for halftone reproduction must be good glossy original prints, of maximum contrast. Clearly label each figure with author's name and figure number; indicate "top" where this is not obvious. Redrawing or retouching of unusable figures will be charged to authors.
Size: The preferred width of submitted line drawings is 20 to 23 cm with capital lettering 4 mm high, to accommodate reduction to single-column width. Photographs for halftone reproduction should be about twice the desired size.
Colour plates: There are a limited number of colour pages within the annual page allowance. However, authors should restrict their use of colour to situations where it is necessary on scientific, and not merely cosmetic, grounds. In addition, authors may pay to publish colour illustrations, but please consult the publisher regarding cost before submission.
EQUATIONS AND FORMULAE
Mathematical equations should preferably be typewritten, with subscripts and superscripts clearly shown. It is helpful to identify unusual or ambiguous symbols in the margin when they first occur. To simplify typesetting, please use: (1) the "exp" form of complex exponential functions; (2) fractional exponents instead of root signs; and (3) the solidus (/) to simplify fractions.
e.g. x1/2 exp (杕v2/2kBT)
Please underline all mathematical symbols to be set italic and put a wavy line under bold symbols. Letters not marked will be set in roman type.
TABLES
Number tables consecutively with roman numerals, and give each a clear descriptive caption at the top. Avoid the use of vertical rules in tables. Indicate in the margin where the typesetter should place tables.
REFERENCES
References are indicated in the text by consecutive superior arabic numbers in brackets (17) . The full list should be collected and typed at the end of the paper in numerical order, and should take the form; surname and initials (if multiple authorship, all names should be given); full title of paper; abbreviated journal title; year of publication; volume number; page numbers. If in doubt authors should always write the journal title in full. e.g.
(16) Ketson A.B., Bayesian estimates of material properties from limited test data Civ. Eng Syst., 1989, 6, 401 - 412.
References to a book should take the form: author's surname, followed by initials; title of book; editors (if any); volume number/edition (if any); name of publisher; place of publication; year of publication; and page number. e.g.
(17) Bloggson X.Y.Z., Systems Theory in Science and Engineering, W. Jones (editor), Volume 2, Gordon and Breach Science Publishers, Switzerland, 1992, 102 - 109.
It is assumed that with the development of the World Wide Web (WWW), authors and/or the publisher will propose distribution of articles or parts of articles on the WWW. If the author knows the HTTP address of a referenced article on the WWW, this information should be added at the end of the reference. Please use the following style:
where http://www.blouk.com/article.html is the HTTP address.
FOOTNOTES
Authors are encouraged to minimize the use of footnotes. A footnote may include the designation of a corresponding author of the paper, current address information for an author (if different from that shown in the affiliation), and traditional footnote content. Information concerning grant support of research should appear in a separate Acknowledgements section at the end of the paper, not in a footnote. Acknowledgements of the assistance of colleagues or similar notes of appreciation also properly belong in an Acknowledgements section, not in footnotes.
Footnotes should be indicated in the text by the following symbols: * (asterisk or star), ?(dagger), ?(double dagger), ?(paragraph mark), ?(section mark), || (parallels), # (number sign). Do not use numerals for footnote call-outs, as they may be mistaken for bibliographical reference call-outs or exponents. Type each footnote* at the bottom of the typescript page on which its text call-out appears e.g.
*Footnote content (this should be written at the bottom of the page).
Footnotes within a table should be indicated by the same symbols listed above. Reinitialize symbol sequence within tables. Type footnotes to a table directly beneath the table.
TEXT CALL-OUTS TO FIGURES, TABLES, SECTIONS, SCHEMES
Text call-outs to figures, tables and other elements are the basis for searching articles on electronic delivery. Therefore, proper designation of text call-outs to figures and other elements is essential to the success of electronic delivery. When referring to a figure, table or other element within an article, always call the element by its full name: "See Table 1", "Figure 1 illustrates...", "Refer to Scheme". Do not use ambiguous call-outs (for example, "1 illustrates...") that do not clearly denote the element being referred to.
SUBMISSION OF ARTICLES ON DISK
The publisher welcomes article submission on disk. Disk files should be submitted with the final hard copy manuscript. The disk file and hard copy must match exactly. Tables and displayed equations may have to be rekeyed by the typesetter from your hard copy manuscript.
When typing the article, do not include design or formatting information. Type all text flush left, unjustified and without hyphenation. Do not use indents, tabs or multi-spacing. If an indent is required, please note it by a line space; also mark the position of the indent on the hard copy manuscript. Indicate the beginning of a new paragraph by typing a line space. Leave one space at the end of a sentence, after a comma or other punctuation mark, and before an opening parenthesis. Be sure not to confuse lower case letter "l" with numeral "1", or capital letter "O" with numeral "0". Distinguish opening quotes from close quotes. Do not use automatic page numbering or running heads.
Articles prepared on most word processors are acceptable. If equations and/or scientific symbols have been imported into the article from another program, please provide details of the program used and the procedures followed. If author-created macros have been used, please use them as well. Illustrations that are available in an electronic format are acceptable; please supply them on a separate disk. Please clearly indicate on the disk the file format and/or program used to produce them, and supply a high-quality hard copy of each illustration as well.
If more than one disk is submitted, please number each disk. Please mark each disk with the journal title, author name, abbreviated article title and file names. Retain a back-up copy of each disk submitted and pack the disks carefully before shipping. Complete the Author Disk Submission form that appears at the back of the journal (forms also may be obtained from the publisher and journal editor in chief) and submit it with the disk and hard copy manuscript.
PROOFS
Authors will receive page proofs (including figures) by air mail for correction, which must be returned to the typesetter within 48 hours of receipt. Please ensure that full postal address, plus phone, fax and e-mail numbers, where available, are given on the first page of the typescript, so that proofs are not delayed in the post. Authors' alterations in excess of 10% of the original composition cost will be charged to authors.
Early Electronic Offprints:
Corresponding authors can now receive their article by e-mail as a complete PDF. This allows the author to print up to 50 copies, free of charge, and disseminate them to colleagues. In many cases this facility will be available up to two weeks prior to publication. Or, alternatively, corresponding authors will receive the traditional 50 offprints. A copy of the journal will be sent by post to all corresponding authors after publication. Additional copies of the journal can be purchased at the author's preferential rate of ?5.00 per copy.
