“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric (how the two differ). Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline. What the other figures mean: journal quartile, SJR, h-index and article processing charge.

The quartile is the one Scimago prints for each category. Rank is the journal's position by SJR among the journals Scimago lists in that category (#1 is the highest); “—” means we hold no rank consistent with that quartile. The document count is what Scopus indexed that year, which can be lower than a journal's full output. Source: SCImago Journal Rank 2025 edition, from Scopus data (scimagojr.com, CC BY-NC).

Frequently asked

Is WIT transactions on the built environment a predatory journal?

Our screening does not flag WIT transactions on the built environment. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in Scopus, which is a positive signal.

Is WIT transactions on the built environment indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?

Per our venue index, WIT transactions on the built environment appears in: Scopus. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.

What is the impact factor of WIT transactions on the built environment?

Papers in WIT transactions on the built environment are cited about 0.2 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q2, with an h-index of 39. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.

What Scimago quartile is WIT transactions on the built environment (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?

In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, WIT transactions on the built environment is Q2 in 1 of its 9 subject categories, Q3 in 1 and Q4 in 7. By category: Arts and Humanities (miscellaneous): Q2, #374 of 817; Architecture: Q3, #116 of 202; Safety Research: Q4, #94 of 111; Automotive Engineering: Q4, #104 of 130; Transportation: Q4, #134 of 147; Safety, Risk, Reliability and Quality: Q4, #180 of 221; Building and Construction: Q4, #209 of 239; Civil and Structural Engineering: Q4, #362 of 418; and 1 more. Its best category quartile is Q2. Quartiles split the journals in a subject category into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; WIT transactions on the built environment is cited about 0.2 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 39.

What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of WIT transactions on the built environment?

The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for WIT transactions on the built environment. The open equivalent is its best Scimago quartile, Q2 in Arts and Humanities (miscellaneous), derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.

Is WIT transactions on the built environment open access?

Our index records its access status as "hybrid". Where this is derived from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic, so confirm on the journal's own site — particularly if an article processing charge matters to you.
