Our intention is not just to establish another journal. We aim to provide the engineer
of practice and the researchers a useful, high-quality and free tool for his work. We
keep the positive characteristics of the best journals in the field and combine those
with the opportunities provided by the internet to create something different.
There are various features that make this effort unique:

Access to high quality resources and professional papers is an important tool
for the engineer to do his job right and it needs to be easy and cheap.
Therefore, unrestricted access to the papers and the data published in the
journal is provided at no cost. This guarrantees maximum exposure to the
published papers. Anyone interested will be able to download and read your
paper.

Papers published in the journal will be multi-colored. This is particularly important
for publications on case histories, as typically photos are not well reproduced in
black and white and important details are lost.

Papers are published in each issue individually as soon as they are accepted by
the editorial board. Thus, time from submission to publication is minimized. The
review process however, mimics that of the most prestigious journals in our field
to ensure the quality of the publication.

An international group of some of the most appreciated engineers of our field is

international character.

Data presented in the papers are provided in accompanying excel spreadsheets.
The data are requested by the reviewers during the review process of the
manuscript. The accompanying data, can be used for research by any parties
interested. That way, a database of geotechnical information is compiled to the
interest of the Profession giving the appropriate credit and exposure to the
authors of the papers.

Additional unlimited web space can be provided on accepted papers/topics in
collaboration with the Geoengineer Website to supplement information
presented on the paper as well as photos. Links between the paper and the
web space can be established and are guaranteed to remain active. The space
will be provided at no cost and no obligation.

The effort is not financially motivated. The journal will remain free intending to
become a very useful, free tool for the engineer of practice. Funding for the
effort is covered by sponsors.
