Top Building and Construction Researchers
Chi Sun Poon ranks first, followed by Jorge de Brito and Jianzhuang Xiao, out of 963,779 ranked researchers.
Field rank: how many more of the researcher's articles, reviews and conference papers in this field reached the world top 10% for their subfield and year than the 10% expected of anyone's. A paper in the top 10% adds 0.9 and any other takes 0.1 away, however highly cited, so many strong papers in the field outrank one famous paper, a long record of ordinary papers does not climb, and work in other fields does not count. A paper in two subfields counts half in each. A researcher with fewer papers in the Nature Index's selective journals than expected has the count lowered by the square root of that journal factor. Floor: 15 works, an institution the snapshot can resolve, and an article, review or conference paper in this field.

ranked researchers with an article, review or conference paper in Building and Construction. Author identities come from OpenAlex disambiguation and inherit its errors: a merged record can put one name over two people’s work, and a split one can halve a career. Every row links out to the OpenAlex record so the underlying claim is checkable, and anything that looks wrong can be reported from the row. That report files a correction against the bibliographic record for a human to review, but it is not a removal or delisting request, and no such route exists yet.
