Article Processing Charges

Jurnal Bangunan, Konstruksi & Desain (JBKD) does not charge any fees for article submissions or during the peer review process. However, to cover the costs associated with publishing, an Article Processing Charge (APC) is required for accepted articles, with exceptions for certain cases.

  1. Article Processing Charges (APC)
    Authors of accepted articles are required to pay an Article Processing Charge (APC) of Rp. 200.000. This fee covers the costs related to editorial management, peer review, production, and maintaining the journal's open-access model.

  2. Submission Fee
    There is no fee for submitting articles to JBKD. Authors may submit their manuscripts free of charge, and no payment is required until the manuscript is accepted for publication.

  3. Exception for Invited Papers
    For invited papers, no Article Processing Charge is applied. The APC for invited articles is Rp. 0, ensuring that invited authors do not bear any costs for publishing.

  4. Payment Terms
    Once an article is accepted for publication, the corresponding author will receive an invoice with payment instructions. The APC must be paid before the article proceeds to the publication stage. Payment can be made via bank transfer or other available methods, as detailed in the invoice.

  5. No Hidden Fees
    JBKD does not charge any additional fees beyond the APC. There are no charges for submission, page limits, color figures, or supplementary materials. All costs are clearly stated to ensure transparency.
