2 INVITATION Several years ago Russia entered a construction boom. Multiple and various underground structures and high-rise buildings are being erected now in its big cities. Moscow with its historical and architectural heritage of more than eight centuries and still growing population of about fifteen millions is the leader of Russian construction industry. New structures in Moscow are being built in the restrained urban conditions. As this takes place, domestic and foreign researchers and designers are facing and solving complex problems of geotechnical engineering. So we have the honour of inviting you to visit the Russian capital where the International Conference Geotechnical Challenges in Megacities will take place on 7-10 June The conference will enjoy participation of the leading foreign and russian geotechnical specialists. The organization of the conference has been supported by International Society for Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ISSMGE) and Russian Society for Soil Mechanics, Geotechnics and Foundation Engineering (RSSMGFE). The Organizing Committee will try to help all the participants to obtain new information, to exchange ideas and to enjoy their stay in Moscow. The complexity of new challenges to be solved by geotechnics in urban agglomerations demands close cooperation and expertise exchange among the broad international audience. For the first time in the practice of international conferences five technical committees of ISSMGE (TC18, TC28, TC32, TC38 and TC41) will unite their efforts to solve the common problems of geotechnical engineering in megacities. VENUE The Conference will take place in Moscow, the capital and the largest city of Russia. It is also the largest city in Europe, with the Moscow metropolitan area ranking among the largest urban areas in the world. Moscow is the political, economic, cultural, religious, financial, educational and transportation centre of Russia. World Trade Center: Congress-Center and hotel Crowne Plaza 1
