Acknowledgements

It would have been impossible to achieve the design and the results presented in this Technical Proposal without the devotion and dedicated work of a large number of technical and administrative staff throughout the Collaboration. We are grateful for their contribution, and we are well aware that the challenge of building and operating ATLAS will rely heavily on their help also in the future.
