COMPOSITE CONSTRUCTION IN STEEL AND CONCRETE VI Engineering Conferences International July 20-24, 2008 Devils Thumb Ranch Tabernash, Colorado, USA Dear CCVI participant, On behalf of the CCVI Organizing Committee, it is my pleasure to welcome you to our Sixth International Conference on Composite Construction in Steel and Concrete. After five successful conferences, we come together once again to share the latest advances in knowledge in the area of steel-concrete composite construction. Let us use the next few days fruitfully by exchanging and discussing ideas, renewing and starting new friendships, and developing an agenda for the future of composite construction. I will also like to thank the staff of Engineering Conferences International and the Devil’s Thumb Ranch for their help in putting this conference together. Enjoy your stay!
