History

The Indian Concrete Journal (ICJ) is the oldest and the foremost civil engineering journal of its kind and repute in India. It was founded way back in August 1927 and since then it is relentlessly disseminating latest technological progress in the spheres of civil and structural engineering, cement and concrete technologies and construction. The back volumes of the ICJ not only highlight the strides made by the construction industry in India but also provide a documentation of how design and construction practices evolved in the country. Construction practices and techniques deployed over the world are also highlighted regularly in the features.

For over eight decades, the ICJ has adapted itself to changing needs of the construction industry in India. Both the form and contents of the journal have undergone changes from time to time. However, the basic task of publishing latest information in the spheres of cement and concrete technologies, and newer concepts in design and construction techniques have been ceaselessly carried out. Also, the results of R&D and other technical progress have been consistently brought to the notice of the readers. This relentless dissemination of latest technical knowledge coupled with constant advocation of good engineering practices, quality control and pursuit of technological excellence has benefited Indian engineers, consultants, architects, contractors, researchers, etc. and has made ICJ what it is today - one of the most reputed civil engineering journals in India and abroad.
