The facility is located in Sydney’s suburb of Homebush, in the middle of the Olympic Park of the Australian city. When it was inaugurated, due to its 110,000 seats, it immediately conquered the “largest Olympic stadium in the world” title and at the same time it is the largest in Australia. The structure was designed and built with the intent of respecting demanding environmental conditions: compared to other Olympic stadiums (Athens and Beijing), as an example, less steel was used. The construction was started in September 1996 and completed just two and a half years later: on March 6, 1999, Sydney’s Olympic Stadium saw its first sport event: two rugby13 matches watched by 104,583 spectators. From October 2001 to October 2003, Stadium Australia was refurbished to make it the only stadium in the world capable of hosting five different professional sports: Rugby13 league, Rugby15 (Union), Australian Football, Soccer and Cricket.

    Corporate Social Responsibility Report 2004 Corporate Social Responsibility – our defi nition At Telstra, we believe that Corporate Social Responsibility is a values-based approach to how we do business, leading us beyond legal compliance to make a positive contribution to the industries and communities in which we participate. Corporate Social Responsibility Report 2004 here for good: Contents 3 From the Chairman and CEO For all of us at Telstra, the defi nition of success extends beyond fi nancial performance. As part of the fabric of Australian society and as a company that touches nearly every Australian every day, it is essential that we carefully consider the impact of each and every one of our decisions on our people, customers, suppliers, investors and the communities in which we all live. At Telstra, we want to contribute to the wellbeing of these communities so that we all prosper both now and in the future. In this way we can achieve a sustainable marketplace and industry and ensure the long-term accessibility to telecommunications for all Australians. Our commitment is to be here for good. We believe there are two important elements to corporate social responsibility. The fi rst is ethical and responsible behaviour that underpins the way we do business every day – going the extra mile to meet our obligations, to do what is right and to CONTENTS live our Telstra values in every decision we make every day. The second is those things that are not part of our main business, but are activities we engage in as a citizen of CSR at Telstra – about this report Page 4 the wider community.

  • Sydney Olympic Park
    THESIS PROJECT SYDNEY OLYMPIC PARK OLYMPIC LEGACY OR BURDEN BY BEN JAMES 2007 AN UNDERGRADUATE THESIS SUBMITTED AS A PARTIAL REQUIREMENT FOR THE BACHELOR OF PLANNING DEGREE, UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES 2007 ABSTRACT ‘The best Olympic Games ever’ are the words that Olympic organising committees around the world want to hear after they have hosted the Olympic Games. This title can only be held by one host city, and the current holder is Sydney. However, like many host cities in the past, infrastructure built for the Games has not had much of a post-games life. Due to this lack of post-games use, the main Olympic site at Homebush is perceived as a burden on Sydney rather than the unambiguous positive legacy envisaged. Sydney Olympic Park has even been described as a ‘white elephant’. This thesis will look at how the site as a whole has functioned since the Games, with particular reference to underutilisation of the two main stadiums. The potential of the 2002 master plan to inject new uses and vitality into the site is considered. The thesis provides a series of best practice guidelines that could be used by future hosts of similar mega-events to ensure that Games-related infrastructure does not become a burden on the host city. I ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would firstly like to thank Peter Williams, who as my thesis advisor provided me with the guidance and assistance that was required for me to complete my thesis. I secondly would like to thank Ellie for her assistance in the reading and formatting of my thesis, as well as her continued support throughout the thesis project.

  • Cable-Stayed Structures for Public and Industrial Buildings
    Теория инженерных сооружений. Строительные конструкции УДК 624:69:72 DOI: 10.33979/2073-7416-2019-81-1-23-47 CABLE-STAYED STRUCTURES FOR PUBLIC AND INDUSTRIAL BUILDINGS KRIVOSHAPKO S.N. Peoples’ Friendship University of Russia (RUDN University), Moscow, Russia Abstracts. Cable-stayed structures are simple in assembling, light in weight, safe in maintenance, and often possess the architectural expressiveness. Today’s cable-stayed structures erected in Germany, France, Italy, Japan, Singapore, USA, South Korea, Australia, and other countries are recognized as unique and innovative structural solutions. Unique first-of-its-kind systems and the well-known structures and buildings of all types, which have practical importance and novelty and were marked by the rewards of professional associations or were passed into the top lists of journals, are presented in the paper. But there is no current classification of cable-stayed structures till present time. New classification of cable-stayed structures containing five groups or ten sub-groups of considered structures is offered. It is impossible to present all meaningful cable-stayed structures in one paper but every sub-group is illustrated by specific notable examples. The principal information on the 90 remarkable cable-stayed public and industrial buildings are submitted for consideration and a special table with the indication of country, architects, and year of erection of these structures was compiled first. The existence of such cable-stayed structures as "suspended bridges" of two types is indicated but their description is not given, because it is the subject of analysis for bridge engineers. The 58 references presented in the manuscript will help to obtain additional information.
