High Performance
Steel Meeting

First of all, let me thank you for agreeing to participate in the
High Performance Steel (HPS) Meeting to be held in Kansas City,
MO on June 8, 1999. The main purpose of this meeting will be to
obtain your input in selecting an innovative bridge configuration
system to be used in Phase III of the Nebraska High Performance
Steel Bridge Initiative.
We will start the meeting with a presentation to be given by Kenneth
Price, J. Muller International and the National Bridge Research
Organization (NaBRO) on possible innovative bridge system configurations.
The remaining portion of the meeting will be devoted to obtain your
input in selecting the most promising innovative bridge configuration
system.
Please take note of these additional items:
I) NaBRO will be hosting a dinner on the evening of June 7th at
9:00 p.m. in the Wyndham Garden Café. We hope that you will
be able to join us for dinner if your time permits.
II) For those of you flying into the Kansas City Airport, the Wyndham
Garden Hotel provides a complementary shuttle service to the hotel.
