The Birds Nest Stadium

The Colosseum is notorious as a prominently marvelous symbol of ancient Rome. This stadium has been and is a revolutionary likeness of vicissitude in manufacturing and composition, having been intact for almost 2000 years. By being most utile, the hugest, and to a greater extent, the most methodologically progressive architecture of its time, this massive Gargantuan essentially paved the way for thousands of postliminary stadiums. Not until the early 20th centuries, nothing could even come close to matching the Colosseum’s luxuriousness.

coliseum, and the circus maximus) which could be compare with the sports arenas of today. In appearance our stadiums of today are not exactly the same, but one can see the similarities in them. Take the coliseum, this stadium is huge, and was built for one purpose; and that was to hold as many Romans as possible. Today 's stadiums are the same way. They are huge, marvelously constructed buildings that are meant to hold thousands of people. Also, the coliseum and circus maximus were built for the people to watch games or "sporting events", just like today. Whether it is a football game at the Silverdome, or a group gladiators fighting to the death in the coliseum, it is all meant to house entertainment.

(TCO B) You are the project manager for three projects. You are about to estimate costs for these three projects. Given the below information on each project, recommend an appropriate estimation method and justify your answer for each.

(TCO B) Good project cost estimations are critical to a successful project. With that in mind, compare and contrast parametric estimating and vendor bid analysis as cost estimation techniques on a project. Please provide an example of each.

The Colosseum is the largest and most famous amphitheater in the Roman world. The Colosseum is capable of holding around 50,000 tourist to watch gladiators fight between each other.

Since the beginning of history stadiums have been used as a gathering point for nations and its populace to enjoy events and festivals. Early examples of stadia can be seen through the famous Roman Coliseum in Rome, where gladiators battled for their freedom and the trivial Globe Theatre in London where Shakespeare’s works were performed. In today’s society, stadia have evolved to become massive multi purpose stadiums that have helped to define and identify the culture and ethos of the surrounding community. With societies push to more of an entertainment culture, more and more stadia are being built in order to accommodate the popularity of sports, music, comedy, and drama. This increase in attendance and popularity has caused stadia today to become highly intricate, requiring millions and sometimes billions of dollars to be used in order to create a not only massive, but also safe atmosphere where people can gather to enjoy their chosen spectacle. The innovation of today’s new stadia requires and depends on proper management and operations. This comes in the form of certain characteristics and techniques, which if used properly can help to lead to the overall success of the stadium. In this analysis, I will discuss the essential characteristics for stadia management, as well as compare and contrast two major stadia in today’s world in order to get a better understanding of their practical application.

The Romans had actually constructed a roof for the Coloseum. The roof was like a retractable sail covering most of the audience during the current event.

ABI is using a top-down process in this project, meaning that determination of the final budget comes almost strictly from a compilation of experiences and judgments of the top and mid-level managers in the company. The higher-level managers break down costs into major categories, pass down their cost estimates to the next lowest level, lower-level managers break the major categories down into subcategories and so on until the estimation process reaches the lowest level of the company. By the end, each level knows the specific amount of money that it is allotted to complete the project tasks required at that level. Because the project is so extensive in price and risk, it would have been smarter for them use a bottom-up process which would have involved the employees who would actually be part of the work team so that management could get a more accurate estimate of the time and money that would be required to complete the project.
