The aim of the present work was to make a bibliometric analysis of research articles and technical notes published in the journal ‘Materiales de Construcción’ between 2003 and 2012. Authors’ productivity and collaboration, affiliation and nationality of authors, collaboration amongst institutions using techniques of social networks analysis, and the impact factor of the journal were analyzed. The results show high levels in authors’ diversification and collaboration; high number of institutions but a low level of collaboration among them; and a big increase of impact factor during all the period. The main conclusion of this work is that ‘Materiales de Construcción’ has evolved positively since 2003 to 2012, becoming a quality journal in its area.
