Author Guidelines
The Civil Engineering Dimension (Dimensi Teknik Sipil) is published biannually, in March and September, by Petra Christian University.
Civil Engineering Dimension aims to:
- Promote a comprehensive approach to civil engineering incorporating viewpoints of different disciplines.
- Strengthen academic exchange with other institutions.
- Encourage scientist, practicing engineers, and others to conduct research and other similar activities.
Civil Engineering Dimension welcomes papers with the above aims and scopes. The editorial board decides papers to be published in Dimensi Teknik Sipil after review by reviewers appointed by the board. Authors will be advised of reviewers' comments and suggestions.
Papers previously presented in a conference not specifically associated with Petra Christian University Publication will be considered. In such cases, a copyright release may be necessary. Papers of a tutorial or historical nature will not be excluded from consideration.

It is better to use several simple tables than one large, complex table. All figures should be clear and suitable for reduction (up to 50% original size). Lettering must be clear and must be large enough to be reduced by the same proportion. All tables and figures must be accompanied by a self-explanatory caption.
Mathematical expressions
Mathematical symbols and formulae should be typed. Particular care should be exercised in identifying all symbols and in avoiding ambiguities. Distinction should be made between the number one (1) and the letter l, or i and between the number zero (0) and the letter o. Equations must be numbered consecutively. Equation numbers should appear in parentheses. All equation number must appear on the right-hand side of the equation and should be referred to within the text. Use following sequence of parenthesis; )] }.
References
References to published literatures should be quoted in the text in numerical order. Numerical citation should be typed on the line, not as a superscript, and enclosed in square bracket, [1]. The references should be listed together at the end of the text in consecutive order, with enough information to allow readers to find the cited item.
Journal reference should be in the style set out as follow:
