General
Journal of Civil and Environmental Engineering (JSIL) is a journal is online and can be accessed openly in https://jurnal.ipb.ac.id/index.php/jsil, This journal only publishes articles in the form of research (research paper) and the literature review (review papers). Articles in the form of comments (comments of paper) on the articles published in this journal or other journals can be considered for acceptance.
a. Articles in the form of research are research that is original and not published in other journals. The results of research in the form of theoretical exposition with the development of data and in-depth evaluation. JSIL not accept articles in the form of case studies and report the results of community service by the reviews too common. The total length of the manuscript, including references, should not exceed 10000 words.
b. Articles in the form of literature are the result of a critical review of the phenomenon and the planning process in the field of Civil Engineering and Environmental Engineering. The article is not a general review and should be focused on a specific description of one study. The total length of the manuscript is more flexible depending on the description of the article.
c. Articles in the form of comments should display originality in expressing criticism of the article with a maximum period of one year from the date of issuance, as well as displaying a strong argument and is not presented confrontational.

    Writing citations in the text and contents and bibliography refers to the writing of the kind of "vancouver". Quote quote written using numbers before the dot at the end of the sentence. Number citations begin and end brackets. Writing should quote numbers sequentially from the beginning of the emergence in the text. If quotes consist of two reference sources, the number of citations written sequentially from the beginning number and followed by a comma; For example: (1,2) or (1,5). If the quote is composed of more than two sources of reference, citation numbers written sequentially from the starting number, followed by dashes, and ends the final number of citations; For example: (1-4) or (1 to 4.8).
    Highly recommended bibliography refers only to journals scientific papers and books. The most important note on page writing is:

• When the "value of tens" page has not changed, the writing page only lists the dashes and just followed the unit value of the page. For example, a script written journal citation from page 330 to 339, then the procedure of writing is 330-9.
• When the "value of tens" changed pages, writing pages must include the hyphen and followed the change "tens value" page. For example, a script written journal citation from page 337 to 341, then the procedure of writing is 337-41.

The format of writing "vancouver" is as follows (1-3):
