ONE COMMUNITY WEEKLY UPDATE DETAILS

HIGHEST GOOD HOUSING PROGRESS

One Community is demonstrating sustainability as a path to a more luxurious life 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:

- - Learn about sustainability as a path to a more luxurious life through: Our Upcoming Crowdfunding Campaign
  - Learn about sustainability as a path to a more luxurious life through the different village models: 7 Sustainable Village Models
  - Visit the open source portals for the first two: Earthbag Village OS Hub | Straw Bale Village OS Hub

This week, Abhishek Kadian (Architect) completed the Revit model, along with the nearly finished roof section details for individual blocks, including the Dome structure of Earthbag Village (Pod 1) and the Flat roof surface for the gathering space composed of wooden joists. The section cut has already been executed; it just requires the addition of a few more details. Check out the collage below to see his models.

Charles Gooley (Web Designer) focused on the Resources section and Tables of Contents in the Open Source DIY Earth Dam and construction for the Water Retention, Pond, and Lake Creation, etc. page. The page has been finalized and is now ready for review. Following this completion, attention shifted to addressing comments on the Most Sustainable Doors and Door Companies page, primarily addressing typographical errors in the mouseover title text. Subsequently, efforts continued on reviewing comments related to the Water Recycling Net-Zero Bathroom page. The majority of these comments were related to grammatical and typographical errors. Two comments required clarification, involving the correction of headings. Adjustments were made, including converting some h3 headings to h2, changing h6 to h3, and transforming certain paragraph underlined headings to h3 (capitalized and not underlined). We see readily available water and recreational water features as a big part of sustainability as a path to a more luxurious life. See the images below for an idea of his work completing these web pages.

DUPLICABLE CITY CENTER PROGRESS

One Community is demonstrating sustainability as a path to a more luxurious life 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:

The Duplicable City Center is a foundation of how we’ll demonstrate sustainability as a path to a more luxurious life. The images below show Julio’s renderings of the 5th row hub connectors.

Justin Varghese (Mechanical Engineer) worked on creating constraints and manual contacts (bonded, separation, etc.) for the structural finite element analysis (FEA) of the City Center Hub Connector. The focus was on ensuring the proper degree of freedom for each solid/component. These defined parameters will be used for the upcoming FEA simulation of the Hub Connector, assisting in the selection of the final hub connector design. The Duplicable City Center is a foundation of how we’ll demonstrate sustainability as a path to a more luxurious life. The collage below shows his work on hub connectors for the week.
