The Journal of Construction (JOC) is the official journal of the Association of Schools of Construction of Southern Africa. ASOCSA has committed itself to foster excellence in construction communication, scholarship, research, education and practice and the Journal provides this medium to achieve this commitment. There are four issues of refereed Journal of Constructions per year serving all stakeholders and participants in the Construction and Engineering sectors.
The Journal of Construction publishes quality papers written in a conversation style aiming to advance knowledge of practice and science of construction while providing a forum for the interchange of information and ideas on current issues. JOC aims to promote the interface between academia and industry, current and topical construction industry research and practical application by disseminating relevant in-depth research papers, reviews of projects and case studies, information on current research projects, comments on previous contributions, research, innovation, technical and practice notes and developments in construction education policies and strategies.
