Dear Colleagues!

It will be our great pleasure and honour to meet you in the vicinity of the old Croatian town of Dubrovnik, one of the exquisite pearls of the Mediterranean, so that we can continue to build the bridges of friendship and professional dialogue in a combined atmosphere of work and leisure. For many centuries now, concrete structures have been contributing, in a number of significant ways, to the advancement and betterment of the mankind.  Let us join our efforts so as to additionally build up and strengthen this contribution during this symposium.

Since the Symposium is being held from Sunday 20th, why not take the opportunity and explore the city during the weekend, take one of the post-symposium excursions, or even sit on the beach of the beautiful hotel Croatia and enjoy the swimming in the crystal clear Mediterranean Sea!

We look forward to greeting you in Dubrovnik in May 2007!
