This work offers a bibliometric analysis of the journal “Informes de la construcción” between 2007 and 2013. The following parameters were analysed: Productivity of authors and collaboration degree, institutions and countries of authors, collaboration of institutions using Social Networks Analysis, impact factor, composition of its editorial team, and period of time between reception and acceptance of papers. The results reveal high levels in diversification and collaboration among authors; high productivity of universities and reseach centres, mainly in Spain, but limited collaboration among them; ups and downs of annual data of Impact Factor; huge growth of editorial team and long staying of its members; and long periods of time between aceptation and publication of papers. In conclusion, “Informes de la construcción” could be considered a good scientific journal, but some aspects of the journal should be ameliored.
