Oct 11 - Oct 13, 2008 Hispanic Association of Colleges and Universities 22nd (HACU) Annual Conference Denver, Colorado The conference theme is Championing Hispanic Higher Education Success: Strengthening the Nation's Prosperity and Opportunity.

Oct 15 - Oct 18, 2008 Transportation and Development Institute of ASCE's Pavement Conference Bellevue, WA You are invited to attend the ASCE's 2008 Airfield & Highway Pavements Conference to explore "Efficient Pavements Supporting Transportation's Future". If you are on the frontline and are constantly challenged to construct and rehabilitate airport and highway pavements that are durable, smooth, quiet, efficient, cost-effective and capable of supporting projected traffic operation, while minimizing closures during construction, this is the conference for you. More and more of the airfield and highway pavement industry is challenged to find cost-effective solutions to ensure long-term quality for its finished product. Successful use of new technology is often the key solution. As part of the Technical Session, distinguished presenters, addressing all areas of current thinking and experience, will cover New Technologies in Pavement Design, Evaluation of Pavements, New and Innovative Materials and New Construction Techniques. Workshops include: Back-to-Basics, which will explore current technology in airfield pavement engineering fundamentals and pavement thickness design for airfields and roadways. This workshop is aimed at the newer pavement design professional. Thickness Design, which will explore how to use the latest FAA and AASHTO thickness design procedures. A tour of Boeing's Everett Assembly Facility and of the runway at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (Sea-Tac) has also been planned. If you are a planner, designer, owner, researcher or contractor, don't miss this conference

Professor Chris Burgoyne Chris Burgoyne is Reader in Concrete Structures at the University of Cambridge, where he has been working since 1989. He has been involved with the use of high strength fibres for applications in Structural Engineering since 1982, when he was working at Imperial College in London. His initial studies concentrated on the use of aramid ropes as pre-stressing tendons for concrete structures, and stay cables for bridges. Later work has studied the use of aramid fibre spirals for containment of compression zones, and the application of fracture mechanics to the breakdown of bond with CFRP plates. He has presented keynote and invited lectures at many international conferences. Professor Jin-Guang Teng r. Jin-Guang Teng is Chair Professor of Structural Engineering, Dean of the Faculty of Construction and Land Use, and Associate Vice President of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. His research interests include the application of fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites in construction, steel structures, shell structures, and structural mechanics. From 2003 to 2006, Professor Teng served as the founding President of the International Institute for FRP in Construction (IIFC) , the leading international organisation dedicated to the advancement of the understanding and the application of FRP composites in the civil infrastructure.
