The ASCE Research Library is a comprehensive online tool for locating articles of interest across all disciplines of civil engineering. The Research Library provides you with unprecedented access to more than 18,500 full-text papers from ASCE Journals and Proceedings published - that's over 175,000 pages! Approximately 4,000 new papers will be added each year.

Access and Usage

A Research Library subscription is not required to use the search and browse features or to view tables of contents and abstracts. Downloading full-text digital papers is available only to Research Library or online journal subscribers. Individuals should purchase an ASCE Research Library Card; subscription information is also available for Institutions.
Personal subscribers gain access to full-text papers via a username and password. Download activity is recorded and tracked in the My Research Library Card account page, which may be viewed anytime after establishing a login session. This account page also serves as a personal archive (this page is not available to institutional subscribers).
Institutional subscribers gain access to the Research Library via their organization's IP addresses and may use the archive in a manner consistent with their institutional online user agreement.
