Is there any requirement for the layout of the submission?

It was really fast. I saw a teacher as a guest editor in a special issue on my friend's circle, so I submitted an article. Unexpectedly, I received feedback for revisions within four weeks, made the revisions and it was accepted. After payment, it was published. It was so fast that I suspected if it was a scam, and it was really expensive.

The article was submitted in early July, with revisions made based on feedback from three reviewers, and the questions raised were quite pointed. I'd like to know how everyone got their discount coupons.

The review process was fast, and the acceptance was quick as well. It's a reputable journal. The expert reviewers were very meticulous and had high grammar requirements. In the first round of reviews, Reviewer 1 requested a major revision (including adding seven to eight specified references), Reviewer 2 accepted the paper as is, and Reviewer 3 requested a minor revision. In the second round of reviews, Reviewer 1 also requested additional specified references to be added. If you know, you know.

This should be the fastest SCI paper I have ever completed in my life, done in 13/18 days! It's a paper collaborated with seniors from another university on residential behavior.
Submitted on 4/10, pending review.
Under review on 4/11.
Received an email on 4/19 that the first review was complete, major revision required, with three reviewers. One reviewer had all positive comments. The other two had more detailed questions, such as "How did the determination of the population and sampling was done? To clarify and explain further".
Completed revisions and submitted on 4/21.
Pending editor decision on 4/23. Second reviewer gave a single word "accept". It was practically accepted at this point, but still had to go through the process. If we consider acceptance at this point, it took 13 days from submission to publication.
Officially accepted on 4/28, proofread on 4/29, paid fees, online on 4/30. If we consider the submission on 4/28 as the milestone, it took 18 days from submission to publication

Is this journal's Special issue also included in SCI?

(0) 讚！ | xinlan2007

Co-authored a submission with a friend for this journal (partly because as an MDPI author I can help him with a discounted publication fee). The paper quality is still good after our internal revisions, but my friend needed a quick acceptance, so we submitted to Buildings. The speed was really fast, it only took less than a month from submission to acceptance
