Journal Title：Teknik Dergi

The scope of Teknik Dergi is naturally confined with the subjects falling in the area of civil engineering. However, the area of civil engineering has recently been significantly enlarged, even the definition of civil engineering has somewhat changed.

Half a century ago, engineering was simply defined as “the art of using and converting the natural resources for the benefit of the mankind”. Today, the same objective is expected to be realised (i) by complying with the desire and expectations of the people concerned and (ii) without wasting the resources and within the sustainability principles. This change has required an interaction between engineering and social and administrative sciences. Some subjects at the borderline between civil engineering and social and administrative sciences have consequently been included in the area of civil engineering.

Teknik Dergi defines its scope in line with this understanding. However, it requires the papers falling in the borderline to have a significant component of civil engineering.

Teknik Dergi 的范围自然局限于土木工程领域的科目。然而，最近土木工程的领域有了明显的扩大，甚至土木工程的定义也发生了一些变化。

半个世纪前，工程学被简单地定义为“利用和转换自然资源以造福人类的艺术”。今天，同样的目标有望实现：(i) 满足相关人员的愿望和期望；(ii) 在不浪费资源的情况下并在可持续性原则范围内。这种变化需要工程与社会和行政科学之间的相互作用。因此，一些处于土木工程与社会和行政科学之间边界的学科被纳入土木工程领域。

Teknik Dergi 根据这种理解定义其范围。但是，它要求处于临界状态的论文具有土木工程的重要组成部分。
