Building Services Engineering Research and Technology (BSERT)
Journal Descriptions
Building Services Engineering Research and Technology is a long‑standing, highly regarded journal in its field, first publishing in 1980 and continuing to advance knowledge in building services engineering. It is published by SAGE Publications in association with the Chartered Institution of Building Services Engineers (CIBSE) — a leading professional body representing building services professionals globally. The journal serves as a key platform for disseminating high‑quality, peer‑reviewed research that supports engineers, researchers, architects, and building system designers in understanding and improving the technologies that enable modern buildings to function effectively. Each bimonthly issue presents rigorous original studies, comprehensive reviews, and insightful analyses of systems such as HVAC, lighting, acoustics, water and air distribution, and energy integration. The journal’s interdisciplinary emphasis bridges engineering, environmental science, and building performance research, offering insights that are relevant to academia, industry, and policy. BSER&T also explores innovations in smart building systems, sustainability strategies, and performance modeling, highlighting how emerging technologies and data‑driven approaches can enhance comfort, efficiency, and resilience in built environments. With indexing in major databases such as Scopus and the Science Citation Index Expanded, the journal maintains international visibility and influence in construction and building technology research communities. Its affiliation with CIBSE also ensures relevance to professional practice and emerging industry standards.
