May I ask who is your responsible chief editor? Does this have a lot to do with speed?

Excuse me, have you also been waiting a long time for the results from RRC here? I have been waiting as well. Originally, two reviewers completed the RRC, but then a third one was added, and it has been almost 10 days and still no results.

Hello, may I ask how much is the layout fee?

Indeed, the new submission system has quite a few issues.

I don't know what's going on. There is still no news at the moment. Wasn't it said that there would be results in three days? On the third day after submitting, the system did move a bit, but then there has been no movement ever since.

Why do we need an Elsevier account and institutional verification to submit manuscripts now? Can't we submit without them? The submission system is really bad now, you can't even submit without generating a PDF for confirmation.

Like me, I also originally had two reviewers who had already returned their comments and were ready for RRC. Suddenly, before accepting the reviews, I don't know what happened and three more reviewers agreed to review. Now there are five reviewers who have agreed to review, three have completed their reviews, and it is still in RRC. It has been a week already, and the key is that I have already completed the second round of revisions. I estimate that it will be accepted soon. Suddenly, so many more reviewers were added and it has been in RRC all this time.

Do you know what the rejection rate is for Case Studies in Construction Materials? It's been half a month and there hasn't been any movement. They wouldn't reject it, would they?

The fourth one has returned. Do they all have to return for it to be considered complete?

Invite 11 people, 7 have accepted, 3 have already returned! It has been ten days since RRC, I don't know how much longer we have to wait! Colleagues who know, please clarify.

Overall, the process was very fast and the reviewers were very efficient. 5 reviewers suggested 3 minor revisions and 2 major revisions, their comments were very professional and helpful for the manuscript. The full length article cost 20390 RMB, which is quite expensive.

Friend, when you review again, will you be editing or sending it to the same 5 reviewers as before?

Has anyone submitted a feature article? 3 submissions by March 23, 2026, with 1 accepted by April 2, and then 3 more to be submitted by the end of April. Currently only 1 person has submitted. Should we remind the editor and submit a few more? Feeling anxious and facing graduation pressure. Any advice from experienced individuals would be greatly appreciated.
