The ANNUAL CONFERENCE ON ARCHITECTURAL RESEARCH AND EDUCATION (ACARE)Full-Paper Submission: Formatting Guideline

The Annual Conference on Architectural Research and Education Full Paper Submission (title of paper)A Guideline for Formatting of PaperAuthor/s:

Abstract:The following instructions form a guideline for formatting papers for the full-paper submission for the ARCHITECTURE THESIS 2016 . The papers are hoped to be published eventually in a refereed thesis book. It is our goal to be relatively flexible in the format, yet maintain a reasonable degree of consistency between papers in the finished product. There should be indication or identification of the source of paper and any of the authors in the full paper for review. List all authors, affiliations and proper credits for contributors should be provided in the final paper, i.e. accepted full paper. Authors should format their documents using the styles provided in this Word document. All correspondence and submissions shall be in electronic form only.. State the source for all illustration. State also permission for use, if the author is not the owner of the any illustration, including tables and figures, used in the manuscript. It is best to use this guidance document as a template for preparing your paper. Not more than 250-word abstract is included. Keywords:Place your keywords here separated by commas if you have more than one. There should be a maximum of 10 keywords.IntroductionPlease read the instructions carefully for the preparation of your manuscript, and the submission deadline, and procedure.This document should be used as your template for preparing your full paper submission for the ACARE. If you use this guidance document as your template and use the styles as they appear, it will greatly assist those who are producing the proceedings. Do not format your paper to simply look like this document, but use this template directly and change the text to your own text without changing the format of font, spacing, etc. You should use the exact styles as in this document. (For those familiar with using Word styles and formatting functions, the style list of this document is called ARF1. You can use the styles in this list to set the formatting attributes, especially the typeface, line spacing, indents, and the space around headings, tables and figures.)Please have your paper checked and edited before submitting it, as the organizers may have to reject papers that are of very poor English. MS Word spelling and grammar checkers will surface many errors, but there will be many sentences with poor English that remain undetected by the automatic checks. There will be a review for the full paper. Authors with accepted full paper will be notified by emails and are required to submit THE REVISED final paper in a format according to publishing requirement. If you use the styles designated in the template faithfully, you may need only minor adjustment to the final paper, if the publisher require some changes to the formatting. Language for Full PaperThe text should be in clear and concise United States English. Margins and LayoutYour text should be laid out for a standard A4 size paper (8.27 x 11.69, portrait). Margins should be set accordingly as: top 1; bottom 1; left 1.25; right 1; gutter 0; header distance 0.5 and footer distance 0.3. The text area is thus 6.02 wide and 9.69 high. Text should be justified.Header and FooterPlease follow the automatic page numbering format that is already set in the footer of this template. There is no page number and header for the first page of each paper. Note that there are no headers for all even (left) pages. Odd (right) pages, other than the first page, would include the paper title at the center of the header. Use an abbreviation if your title is too long.Fonts and SpacingBody text should be set using the ARF1-Normal style (Professional looking fonts, 11 pt). Provide 6 pt spacing after paragraphs. Paragraphs may not be indented. Emphasis within the text, such as words to be defined or key phrases, should be italicised. Bulleted lists may be used (style: ARF1-Bulleted List), with a simple dot for a bullet. Numbered lists may be used; Arabic numbers are preferred, set off by a close parenthesis. Use only one Carriage Return/Line Feed after a paragraph. Do not insert any empty lines between paragraphs.TablesPut tables in the text, in the paragraph after they are first mentioned. Centre tables on the page, unless it is necessary to use the full page width. Exceptionally large tables may be placed landscaped (90o rotated) on the page, with the top of the table at the left-hand margin. Keep tables simple. All texts in the table are 9 pt with 1.5 line spacing. Column headings should be bold and centered. Put units in the column heading, in parentheses. Legends should be italicised, left, 10 pt, above the table. Leave 12 pt above and 6 pt below the legend. Use fine horizontal rules. Only three are usually needed: one below the caption to start the table, one to end it, and one below the column heads. Do not use vertical rules or boxes. Do not extend rules across the page but only as wide as the widest text within the table. An example of a table is given below.Table 1 Formatting Instructions (Source: Author)Style NameStyle Format

IllustrationsIllustrations include line drawings, charts, photographs and digital imagery. All such illustrations will be considered as figures. They should all be digitised. High quality should be maintained. Line drawings should be converted to a raster format. Set images to an appropriate final size and orientation.. Provide at least 300dpi resolution for the final manuscript for printing purposes. Frame the figures where necessary. Images should be inserted in the body of the document for review.Each figure should be placed after the text that refers to it. Leave spacing of 12 pts above the figure and 6 pt below. All figures should be mentioned in the text (Figure 1). Embed a Caption below the figure. The editors will make final decisions regarding the location of the figure.

Figure 1 Sample Figure (Source: Author)Each figure must have a brief descriptive caption. Use the ARF1-Figure Caption style for the caption. Number all diagrams, figures and photos sequentially, Figure 1, Figure 2, etc, with one character space between the number and the caption. Use the Caption style provided in the electronic template. All figures should be referenced within the body text.EquationsEquations should be italicised and centred on the page, with the equation number in parentheses, flush right. Please put 12 pt spaces above and below the equation.E=mc2(1)Whenever possible, try to avoid breaking equations between parentheses, brackets, or braces.Bullets and NumberingPlease refer to the section Fonts and Spacing. Identification and CreditsList of all authors, affiliations and proper credits for contributors should only be provided in the final paper, i.e. accepted full paper. ReferencesThe References heading should not be numbered (see later section). References should follow the APA style This style is one of the most widely used. It should be possible for all authors to collect bibliographic data and format it in a consistent manner. Many web sites include examples of how to format your references using the APA Style.Only texts that are cited in the paper should be included in the References. All works that are cited should be included in the References section.CitationReferences should be cited in the text by author name and the date of publication, enclosed in parentheses. The citation is placed at the end of the sentence. If there are three or fewer authors, all authors are included in the citation embedded in the text. More than three authors should be cited as the first author and then the designation et. al. If a single sentence has more than one citation, all citations are enclosed in a single set of parentheses. Multiple citations within a single set of parentheses are separated by a semicolon.Here are examples of citations as they would appear embedded into the text:One author: (Yeang 1996)Two authors: (Hawkes and Forster 2002)Four or more authors: (Johnson et al. 1999)Two works by same author in same year: (Lam1998a, 1998b)Several works by same author in different years: (Olgyay 1952, 1963)Several works by different authors: (Johnson et al. 1999; Yeang 1993; Ong 2003; Olgyay et al. 2000) Bibliographic DataThe bibliographic data should be provided in the References. Bibliographic data lists all authors in the order as designated on the title page or under the title in a journal publication. First names should be initialised. The References should be alphabetized by first authors surname. If more than one work has the same first author, the works should be alphabetised by second author and so on. If more than one work by the same author list is cited, the works should be ordered by date of publication. If it is still impossible to distinguish the author list, then a lower case letter may be appended to the year of publication.Bibliographic data should include the author, the year of publication, the title and publication in which an article appears, and the publisher. Heading, First ORderHeadings in your paper should be created using the predefined heading styles in the template. Generally, first to third orders should be used, fourth order heading only when you really need it, and fifth order headings and further should be avoided. All headings use Times New Roman, bold. For exact details, such as the line spacing before and after headings, please see Table 1.1.1 Subheading, Second OrderSecond order heading is also in 12 pt font, bold, but not all capitals.Subheading, Third OrderThird order heading is in 10 pt font, bold, again not all capitals. If headings follow one another without text in between them, some adjustment will be done.Subheading, Fourth and Higher OrderFor fourth and higher order headings, if you really insist on using it, is similar to third order heading but just add another level to your numbering. This is not encouraged, but try to limit your subheading to third level only.ReferencesHawkes, Dean, and Wayne Forster. 2002. Architecture, engineering and environment.
