One Community is solutioneering global sustainability 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, Charles Gooley (Web Designer) focused on two pages: The Earthbag Village Tools and Equipmentent and Open Source DIY Earth Dam Design & Construction for Water Retention, Pond & Lake Creation. He alphabetized the list of Earthbag Village tools and equipment on the Earthbag Village Tools and Equipment page, and provided anchor links to each item on the list for both the first and second lists, including full URL anchor links in the tool and equipment description. Equipment, tools, and material from the Earthbag Village Tools and Equipment page were added to the Tools and Equipment for Open Source Construction page when necessary, with full URL anchor links provided. Tables were enhanced with headers, and the font size was reduced to ensure they didn’t extend beyond the right margin. Earth constructions like both of these are an important part of solutioneering global sustainability with One Community’s open source plans. See his work in the collage below.
Joseph Osayande (Mechanical Engineer) continued helping finish the Vermiculture Toilet designs. This week, modifications were made to the support system to scale the model and provide a complete view. Adjustments included working on the leg space for the foothold and positioning the winch supporting plate a few inches below the top. Designs for an external support were explored to prevent movement of the left and right support pieces. Additionally, the calculation sheets were improved for greater detail, with explanations of all assumptions and links for any estimates added. The vermiculture toilets and other sustainable human waste processing technologies form the basis of One Community’s open source model for solutioneering global sustainability. See below for some of the pictures related to this work.
Rizwan Syed (Mechanical Engineer) also continued helping finish the Vermiculture Toilet designs. This week, Rizwan implemented design changes to the side and rear structures of the vermiculture chamber system in SolidWorks. He replaced the truss-shaped supports, which previously extended the full span of the chamber, with a shorter structure that terminates at the mid-plane. This adjustment was made to facilitate the operation of the drawer handle in the rear chamber. Rizwan also created new attachment brackets to secure the lateral unistruts to the main chamber. In addition, he resized the drawer handle to ensure it fits precisely at the front drawer’s terminal point and made corresponding updates to the design of the rear barriers. Furthermore, he developed a preliminary slider mechanism equipped with linear bearings, designed to enable the mechanical separator to move laterally. This linear slider mechanism will allow the separators, located above the drawer handle, to slide in and out of the chamber, facilitating the collection of composted material. The vermiculture toilets and other sustainable human waste processing technologies form the basis of One Community’s open source model for solutioneering global sustainability. Here are a few photos showing examples of his work.
The Aircrete Testing Team’s summary, covering their work on Aircrete Compression Testing was managed by John Sullivan (CBU Chemical Engineering Student) and includes Jonathan Crago (Civil Engineering Student), Preston Thompson (Civil Engineering Student), and Tom Sheppard. This week, Tom focused on reviewing previous teams’ work to simplify all previous trials. He spent most of his time analyzing the existing research to build on it. With the team scheduled to gain lab access next week, Tom is planning the next steps. To progress, he reviewed research on the effects of surfactants like Drexel and 7th Gen soap on concrete strength, the mechanics of bubble formation, and how air entrainment admixtures affect the predictability of bubble distribution in concrete. Tom hypothesizes that overdevelopment of the concrete sample causes large, unpredictable air pockets from smaller, more predictable bubbles. Additionally, he identified an issue in the Google Doc where previous teams used a commercially available concrete mix, Quickcrete, which includes aggregate, sand, Portland cement, and additives. This inconsistency in testing parameters needs to be addressed, and the team will develop a consistent testing standard moving forward. Preston and the team were unable to access the lab due to pending approval from the dean, so they focused on researching and updating the final document. Preston’s efforts were centered on aircrete research, where he found articles providing compression results and information on materials affecting aircrete. He contributed to the document by adding sections on waste management, recipes, and incorporating data from the previous team.
Jonathan did his part solutioneering global sustainability as he reviewed the group document to understand the procedures for editing it, made a suggestion on the safety equipment section, and researched aircrete recipes. He examined the previous team’s documents, spreadsheets, and recommended links to videos and articles to better comprehend aircrete and identify controllable variables. Additionally, he uploaded a PDF to OneDrive of a useful article on admixtures. John and the team were unable to begin trials due to pending permission for lab access.
In the interim, John did additional online research to find a more scientific and consistent method of making aircrete, though Google Scholar provided limited information. He also worked on the final document by reviewing the past team’s data and results, adding relevant information where useful. The team expanded the document by including more specific sections, such as waste management. The team’s efforts form the basis of One Community’s open source model for solutioneering global sustainability. See below for some of the pictures related to this work.
One Community is solutioneering global sustainability 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:

One Community is applying cooperative human relationships 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, Charles Gooley (Web Designer) focused on two pages: The Earthbag Village Tools and Equipmentent and Open Source DIY Earth Dam Design & Construction for Water Retention, Pond & Lake Creation. On the Earthbag Village Tools and Equipment page, he alphabetized the list of tools and equipment and added anchor links to each item on the list, both for the first and second lists. Additionally, he integrated these anchor links into the tool and equipment descriptions. On the Open Source DIY Earth Dam Design & Construction for Water Retention, Pond & Lake Creation page, he incorporated content from the provided Google Doc, including a section on Dam Break Risk Assessment. Earth constructions like both of these are an important part of applying cooperative human relationships with One Community’s open source plans. See his work in the collage below.
Joseph Osayande (Mechanical Engineer) continued helping develop the Vermiculture Toilet designs. This week, the coefficient of rolling resistance on concrete based on the weight of the drawer was determined. Research was done on various methods for moving the drawer onto a platform capable of withstanding its weight and transporting it over a distance, as well as ways to empty the drawer and the potential use of latches for a foldable side. A stand for the winch and holder was also considered. New design ideas for the structure were sketched to address flaws in the old design, and a quick CAD model was created to visualize the proposed improvements. The vermiculture toilets and other sustainable human waste processing technologies form the basis of One Community’s open source model for applying cooperative human relationships. See below for some of the pictures related to this work.
Rizwan Syed (Mechanical Engineer) also continued helping develop the Vermiculture Toilet designs. This week, Rizwan concentrated on the design of reinforcement structures for the vermiculture chamber, with particular attention to the assembly and disassembly of sub-components within the eco-toilets. He developed preliminary CAD models in SolidWorks, focusing on C-channel unistrut reinforcements that allow for lateral movement of removable drawers along the chamber assembly. Adjustments were made to the size of the removable containers to ensure they fit seamlessly with the unistrut reinforcements and could be easily inserted from the front. Rizwan also reviewed AutoCAD plans of the Earthbag Village to check for potential interference or collisions between the removable drawers, reinforcements, and the overall structure of the village. In addition, he began compiling a list of necessary hardware components, including rubber plugs, bolts, and nuts, essential for the assembly of the drawers and barrier sheets in the vermiculture system. The vermiculture toilets and other sustainable human waste processing technologies form the basis of One Community’s open source model for applying cooperative human relationships. Here are a few photos showing examples of his work.
The Aircrete Testing Team’s summary, covering their work on Aircrete Compression Testing was managed by John Sullivan (CBU Chemical Engineering Student) and includes Jonathan Crago (Civil Engineering Student), Preston Thompson (Civil Engineering Student), and Tom Sheppard. This week, Jonathan worked with his team to perform compression testing on the remaining concrete test cylinders and assisted in organizing the concrete testing room. He and his group recalculated the correct mixing ratios and compiled a list of equipment to be purchased. Efforts to gain additional lab access were unsuccessful due to the need for the engineering dean’s approval. Jonathan also began researching Aircrete’s properties and various testing methods, using links provided by his colleague, Tom, as well as previous team documents. Preston met with the team to perform calculations, conduct compression tests, create plans, and compile a list of materials needed for the project. Issues with lab access were communicated to the professor and Dean. Preston focused on volume calculations, creating data sheets, and researching Aircrete. Tom researched Aircrete results promoted by Aircrete Harry, finding a video where Aircrete Harry discusses concrete air entrainment and thickening additives. Although Tom located the thickener, he could not find a formula or MSDS to determine its environmental safety. He plans to discuss the potential use of these secondary additives in an upcoming meeting. Additionally, Tom is working on a document listing independent testing and relevant YouTube video links, and reviewing notes taken by other team members. This team’s efforts are an excellent example of One Community’s open source model for applying cooperative human relationships. See below for some of the pictures related to this work.
One Community is applying cooperative human relationships 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, Chris Blair (GIS Technician/Horticulturist) continued working with GIS data as part of One Community’s Permaculture Design. Chris completed creating metadata for geospatial analysis images from Ben Missimer, shared shapefiles from One Community’s Dropbox, and images related to the master plan from One Community’s permaculture webpage. He also finished georeferencing raster data updated with a new projected coordinate system and started digitizing the plans from images of the master plan by creating new feature classes in ArcGIS Pro. Roads were traced with lines, while structures were made using polygons. Digitizing the features from these images directly onto ArcGIS’s basemap will begin the process of using geospatial analysis on One Community’s master plan. Proper property modeling and understanding is an important part of One Community’s open source model for applying cooperative human relationships. Here are a few photos showing examples of his work.
Nika Gavran (Industrial Designer) continued her work on the Duplicable City Center dormer window installation plans. This week, Nika continued incorporating insulation into the CAD model. She is preparing instructions on measuring and cutting each piece of wood and insulation while refining aspects of the design and assembly. Her next steps include addressing screws and screw holes, after which she will render each piece fully for the instructions. The Duplicable City Center is a foundational part of One Community’s open source model for applying cooperative human relationships. See below for some of the pictures related to this work.
One Community is applying cooperative human relationships through Highest Good food that is more diverse, more nutritious, locally grown and sustainable, and part of our open source botanical garden model to support and share bio-diversity:

By Thursday, he followed up on another team member’s progress through a personal discussion with Summit. On Friday, Shaofeng did two significant tasks: testing the functionality of awarding ‘xhoursin1week’ badges in the ‘xhoursxweeks’ components and leading the weekly team meeting to review the progress of all team members. Summit focused on debugging the unit test for PR 665, which was experiencing a forced exit before completion. Initial investigation pointed to a setInterval call in emailSender.js, prompting attempts to resolve the issue by adding checks and modifying the code. Further testing revealed that the problem might not be with the setInterval, but rather with the xhoursinxweeks function. Specifically, the function was returning an incorrect badge collection length, indicating a duplication issue within the badge count. Summit continued efforts towards testing and debugging the xhoursinxweeks logic to identify the root cause of the error. Xiao assumed additional responsibilities from a part-time colleague, concentrating on the thorough testing of all badges in the system to ensure their proper functioning and accuracy. He also committed time to troubleshooting and resolving any issues found, making sure all badges comply with the established standards. Alongside his testing tasks, Xiao delved into several functionalities of Microsoft Azure. His investigation focused on various techniques to improve database management practices.
