Building Acoustics is a quarterly peer-reviewed journal focused on acoustic issues in the built environment. The journal strives to be the preferred publication platform for researchers in architectural acoustics and related fields, and to serve as a forum for communication and integration within the research community in the field. Its target audience is quite broad, including but not limited to scientists, professional consultants, engineers, architects, builders, and representatives of public institutions, all of whom are actively engaged in research and development in the field of architectural acoustics.
A distinguishing feature of the journal is the emphasis on the practical application of new knowledge and the provision of practical information for practitioners. This means that articles published in the journal should not only be innovative in theory, but also be able to provide solutions and suggestions for improvements to practical architectural acoustics problems. This practical oriented publishing philosophy enables the journal to meet the specific acoustic performance needs of professionals in the design, construction and management of buildings.
