Abstracting and Indexing Systems, Databases and Networks:

The author or authors are the owners of the Copyright © of the published text; at request of the Publishing Office of Revista de Arquitectura (Bogotá), a Permission to Reproduce form must be signed (RevArq FP03 Permission to Reproduce), which is covered by the CC license, expressing the right of first publication of the work.

Revista de Arquitectura (Bogotá) complies with the international intellectual property and copyright laws, and particularly Article No. 58 of the Political Constitution of Colombia, Law No. 23 of 1982, and the Agreement No. 172 of September 30, 2010 (Universidad Católica de Colombia Intellectual Property Regulation).

For purposes of authorship and co-authorship, we differentiate two types of articles: “co-authored article” and “collective work”. In the first case, authorship is attributed to all participants, as the article is the result of teamwork. In this case, the lead author (also the corresponding author) is responsible for ensuring that all co-authors review and approve the final version, and give their consent for divulgation. The collective work is the result of the initiative, coordination, and execution of an author, although a number of collaborators might have taken part in it. In this case, authorship is attributed to this person (unless a different agreement has been made), and his or her authorization alone will be sufficient for publication.

The number of authors per article must be justified by the subject, complexity, and length of the article, and must not exceed the median of authors in the discipline; for this reason, the recommended number of authors per paper is no more than five. The order of authors’ names will correspond to the contribution of each to the article; fictitious or gift authorship must be avoided. If more people participated in the research, they should be included as collaborators in the acknowledgements section. Revista de Arquitectura (Bogotá) will respect the number and the order of authors as they appear in the original paper submitted. If the authors consider it necessary, they may include a brief description of their individual contributions at the end of the article.

Communication is maintained with one of the authors, who will be responsible for informing the rest of the collaborators of the notifications sent by Revista de Arquitectura (Bogotá).
