Declining or Waning
- Traditional Materials and Techniques:
There has been a noticeable decrease in publications focusing solely on traditional materials and construction techniques, possibly as the field shifts towards modern materials and innovative construction practices. - Historical Architectural Analysis:
While still relevant, the number of papers dedicated exclusively to the historical analysis of architectural styles and structures has diminished, suggesting a shift towards more contemporary applications and technologies. - Purely Theoretical Studies:
Research that is strictly theoretical without practical applications or case studies has become less common. The journal seems to favor studies with tangible impacts on current construction practices. - Generalized Sustainability Discussions:
Broad discussions on sustainability, without specific case studies or quantitative analysis, appear to be less frequent. The journal seems to prioritize detailed, actionable research rather than generalized sustainability themes.
