You are a contractor on a $45 million project in down town Los Angeles. The project is scheduled to be completed in 2 years. You are 6 months into the project so far and project performance reports indicate that the budget has been exceeded by 10% thus far. Your schedule has also been delayed by more than a month due to subcontractor issues and labor disagreements. As a result, the quality of the job is suffering. It is your job as the Project Manager to get the project back on budget and schedule and address any quality issues. What steps will you take in order to get the job back on track? Identify actions that you could take and analyze which ones might work best.

research a topic related to Islamic Architecture such as:

Period, Building or Element,

The project focuses on the following:

• Short history of an era and region

• Cultural, philosophical, contextual, etc. approach to the design

• Brief description and explanation (bullet points)

• Most important characteristics & features

• Comparison (similarities and differences) between styles, buildings, construction methods, materials, decoration, theoretical backgrounds, etc.

• Findings and final observations of the research

The bellow listed titles are just your guidelines. You can either select from the listed topics or suggest another one that is following the same idea of the comparative analysis:

1. Traditional Islamic Architecture versus Modern Islamic Architecture

2. Islamic Architecture in Iran versus Islamic Architecture in India

3. Great Mosque of Damascus versus Great Mosque of Cordoba

4. Hammam in Morocco versus Hammam in Turkey

5. Traditional Hammam Design versus Modern Hammam Design

6. Hypostyle Hall versus Central Dome Concept

7. Mosques of 17th Century: Jama Masjid-Delhi versus Sultan Ahmed Mosque-Istanbul

8. Contemporary Mosque in Turkey versus Ottoman Mosque in Turkey

9. Grand Mosque of Bursa versus Seljuk Architecture

10. Traditional Decoration and Ornamentation versus Contemporary Decorative Style

11. State Mosque: Gazi-Husrev Bay Mosque-Sarajevo versus Suleymaniye MosqueIstanbul

12. Madrasa in Maghreb versus Madrasa in Turkey

For a standard case with h = 8 inch and k = 100 psi, the corner deflection is 0.0353 inch under 18-kip single axle load and 0.0459 inch under a 36-kip tandem axle load. If predicted number of load repetition is 5x106, determine the percent erosion damage under single- and tandem-axle load, respectively.

<Equations>
p = k×w
Rate of work, P = 268.7 ́(p2/hk0.73)

Log N = 14.524-6.777(C1P-9.0)0.103

where C1 = 1 for untreated and 0.9 for treated subbase
Percent erosion damage = 100 ́sum of (0.06ni/Ni) for all vehicle groups
