ONE COMMUNITY CREATING AN OPEN SOURCE WORLD WEEKLY UPDATE DETAILS

 

CREATING AN OPEN SOURCE WORLD HOUSING PROGRESS

Highest Good housing, cob construction, earthbag construction, straw bale construction, earthship construction, subterranean construction, sustainable homes, eco-homesOne Community is creating an open source world through Highest Good housing that is artistic and beautiful, more affordable, more space efficient, lasts longer, DIY buildable, and constructed with healthy and sustainable materials:

This week, Abhishek Kadian (Architect) worked on creating a Revit file of a 4-dome structure for the Earthbag Village (Pod 1), adding more details to the model such as the site and dome structure details. Additionally, Abhishek researched wooden joist fixing details and gathered some reference images of roof detailing in a way to incorporate them into the Revit model to the proper detailed section. Earthbag Village is the first village we are open sourcing as part of our process for creating an open source world.  See the collage below for an idea of his work on the dome structure details.

Charles Gooley (Web Designer) worked on enhancing the Open Source DIY Earth Dam and construction for the Water Retention, Pond, and Lake Creation page. A section was added, titled DIY Earth Dam Disaster Risk Mitigation, which delves into the purpose of risk assessment to aid individuals, organizations, dam owners, and operators in comprehending measures to minimize the risks and enhance resilience to dam failure. The section provides an overview of risk reduction measures adaptable to diverse situations, along with additional resources for further information. DIY and open source earthworks tutorials are a significant part of our process for creating an open source world. Check out the images below to see Charles’ work on dam design and construction.

CREATING AN OPEN SOURCE WORLD CITY CENTER PROGRESS

duplicable city center, open source city hub, laundry, dining, swimming pool, hot tub, kitchen, library, game roomOne Community is creating an open source world through a Duplicable and Sustainable City Center that is LEED Platinum certified/Sustainable, can feed 200 people at a time, provide laundry for over 300 people, is beautiful, spacious, and saves resources, money, and space:

This week, Julio Marín Bustillos (Mechanical Engineer) achieved the completion and placement of the initial variation of the City Center hub connector for the fifth row. He also began the design work on the second variation of the hub connector for the same row. The complexity of the fifth row’s design demands a total of four variations to accommodate its unique structural requirements. This particular row stands out as the most time-consuming phase of the project due to the need for multiple variations. DIY and open source Duplicable City Center construction tutorials are a significant part of our process for creating an open source world. See the collage below for an idea of Julio’s contributions from this week.

Justin Varghese (Mechanical Engineer) generated 3D CAD models for the bolts and nuts corresponding to the design of the new City Center hub connector, subsequently integrating them into the new hub connector file. This integrated file is planned for utilization in the forthcoming finite element analysis (FEA) simulation, focusing on assessing the connector’s performance under full load conditions. The outcomes of this simulation will inform the selection of the final hub connector design. Additionally, adjustments were made to the inner ring diameters following recommendations from the Senior Engineer. DIY and open source Duplicable City Center construction tutorials are a significant part of our process for creating an open source world. Check out the collage below to see Justin’s work on the hub connector engineering for this week.

Bailey implemented a conditional statement on the front-end. Jerry continued his work on unit testing the AssignBadge component. Resolving issues such as “Could not find ‘store’ in the context of ‘Connect(AssignBadge),'” Jerry worked on experimental syntax challenges by consulting articles, viewing tutorials, and constructing example React components and test files. Switching to react-testing-library and Jest, he rendered the Redux component without errors, addressing whitespace issues and implementing corresponding unit tests. Roberto and Luis addressed bugs in a task, devising a plan for Roberto’s progress. Roberto then focused on implementing a feature allowing users to view another person’s dashboard, encountering substantial refactoring during the merge process. Yao overcame challenges related to user account types and modal functionality by resolving issues and actively addressing remaining bugs. Jiarong worked on advancing the HGN Software Development project, specifically updating WeeklySummariesReport.jsx from a class to a function component.
