About the Conference Proceedings Series
The Smart and Sustainable Built Environment (SASBE) journal has emerged as an authority in the field, hosting cutting-edge research on intelligent and sustainable building practices. It has achieved a remarkable milestone in the Scopus CiteScore tracker (over 12), positioning itself as the number one journal in architecture and cultural studies and ranking among the top 10 in civil and construction engineering based on Scopus data.
Additionally, SASBE Conference Series is one of the flagship events representing CIB W116, the largest and one of the oldest commissions of the International Council for Research and Innovation in Building and Construction (CIB).
CIB W116 focuses on the integrated development of intelligent and sustainable aspects of the built environment, promoting high-performance and innovative solutions for improved sustainability. Its work program includes organising CIB-SASBE conferences and facilitating knowledge dissemination on research and best practices through conference proceedings.
As a global network of building and construction professionals, CIB enhances industry performance through international collaboration and information exchange. Founded in 1953, it plays a pivotal role in advancing research and innovation in the built environment. By fostering multidisciplinary approaches that consider functional use and interaction with the natural environment, CIB continues to drive progress in sustainable and intelligent construction solutions.
