Materiales De Construccion is mainly concerned with subjects like Composite material, Mineralogy, Cement, Mortar and Humanities. The journal facilitated presentations on Composite material research, particularly Compressive strength, Flexural strength, Porosity, Pozzolan and Aggregate (composite). The journal explores issues in Mineralogy which can be linked to other research areas like Gypsum, Metallurgy, Chemical engineering and Nuclear chemistry.
Portland cement is part of Cement studies tackled in the journal.
The main points discussed in the journal papers deal with Composite material, Mineralogy, Portland cement, Mortar and Compressive strength. The studies on Mineralogy discussed at the published papers can also contribute to research in the domains of Salt crystallization, Analytical chemistry, Nuclear chemistry, Weathering and Metallurgy. Research in the field of Cement was used to conduct the presented Portland cement studies in the published articles.
The journal explores disciplines such as Composite material, Compressive strength, Cement, Mortar and Aggregate (composite). The study on Composite material presented in it intersects with the topics under Volume (thermodynamics). The concepts on Compressive strength presented in it can also apply to other research fields, including Geotechnical engineering, Montmorillonite, Thermal treatment, Foundry and Asphalt pavement.
The work on Cement tackled in Materiales De Construccion brings together disciplines like Slag, Bearing capacity, Fly ash, Potassium phosphate and Magnesium. While the journal focused on Fly ash, it was also able to explore topics like Portland cement and Effluent. Issues in Mortar were discussed, taking into consideration concepts from other disciplines like Cementitious, Layer (electronics), Surface modified, Bending and Microstructure.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Materiales De Construccion (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.
Only papers with recognized affiliations are considered
The top affiliations publishing in Materiales De Construccion (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 14.81% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 34.78% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 13.04% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 13.04% of all publications and 39.13% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.

(2021)Studying Materials Science opens doors to various advanced education opportunities that can accelerate career growth. For those seeking to deepen their expertise quickly, an online master degree offers a flexible and efficient pathway, often allowing graduates to specialize in cutting-edge materials technologies.
Alternatively, professionals looking to enhance specific skills without a full degree might consider 12 month certificate programs that pay well. These certifications provide targeted knowledge relevant to industries such as manufacturing, aerospace, or nanotechnology, boosting employability and earning potential.
While Materials Science is a highly technical field, interdisciplinary skills are becoming more valuable. For example, understanding visual documentation through a digital photography degree online can support roles in lab work or quality control by improving the ability to capture and analyze material structures.
For experienced professionals aiming for leadership positions, pursuing a Doctor of Business Administration via dba programs online can develop strategic management skills essential in materials companies and R&D departments.
