openBIM® by Sonetra KETH

openBIM® is a collaborative approach and an ecosystem of open standards, protocols, and workflows that enable interoperability across different BIM software platforms, stakeholders, and disciplines in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry.

openBIM® represents an industry-wide movement towards interoperability and open standards that facilitate collaborative, data-rich BIM workflows across diverse software platforms and stakeholders, ultimately fostering a more integrated, flexible, and sustainable built environment ecosystem.

Core Principles of openBIM®

Interoperability: Seamless exchange of BIM data without proprietary restrictions.

Open Standards: Relying on internationally recognized, non-proprietary standards to facilitate data consistency and collaboration.

Open Data Exchange: Promoting a data-centric approach where model information can be shared, interpreted, and used across various tools.

Collaborative Ecosystem: Enabling multiple stakeholders using different applications to work collectively on a project.

Key Components of openBIM®

Standards and Protocols

Industry Foundation Classes (IFC): The core openBIM schema developed by buildingSMART® for rich, schema-based exchange of geometric and semantic data.

bSDD (buildingSMART Data Dictionary): A comprehensive repository of standardized data definitions to ensure semantic consistency.

CityGML, IFC-SPF: Additional standards for GIS, infrastructure, and other data formats.

IFC, BCF (BIM Collaboration Format): For model data exchange and issue tracking.

Tools and Software

Various BIM applications supporting openBIM standards, enabling import/export, viewing, validation, and collaboration while maintaining data integrity.

The interoperability is made possible through software certifications and compatibility testing, often coordinated by buildingSMART®.

Workflow & Data Management

Emphasizes a model-centric approach, where the central repository is an IFC model that can be accessed, modified, and referenced by multiple applications.

Promotes open data exchange rather than proprietary formats, reducing vendor lock-in and fostering innovation.

Advantages of openBIM®

Vendor Neutrality: No single vendor controls the data exchange standards.

Flexibility & Compatibility: Enables collaboration across various platforms (Revit, ArchiCAD, Vectorworks, Tekla, etc.).

Long-term Data Sustainability: Ensures that project data remains usable and understandable over time.

Enhanced Collaboration: Stakeholders can work concurrently, review, issue comments, and coordinate effectively.

Typical Detail: RC Slab Drop Panel 典型细节: 钢筋混凝土板 Drop Panel by Sonetra KETH

DROP PANELS are reinforced concrete extensions around the top of shear walls, columns, or heavily loaded areas. They are critical elements in seismic and load-resistant structural design. Slab drop panels are thickened areas around columns in flat slab construction, increasing shear strength and enabling the slab to support greater loads. This feature is typical of flat slab systems, which are two-way reinforced structures.

Drop Panels are needed because:

Shear and Moment Resistance: They enhance the capacity of vertical structural elements (shear walls or columns) to resist bending moments and shear forces, especially at the critical junctions (e.g., wall-column interfaces).

Reduce Stress Concentrations: Drop panels distribute concentrated shear and axial loads more evenly into the foundation or diaphragm, preventing stress concentrations and potential structural failure.

Increase Structural Rigidity and Stability: They improve the overall stiffness and robustness where high load or seismic forces are expected, especially in high-rise or seismic zones.

Much engineering judgment is required to reach a sound conclusion on the allowable movements that can be safely tolerated in a tall building. Several factors need to be taken into account. These are:

Type of framing employed for the building

Magnitude of total as well as differential movement

The rate at which the predicted movement takes place

Type of movement, whether the deformation of the soil causes tilting or vertical displacement of the building

Every city has its own particular characteristics regarding the design and construction of foundations for tall buildings, which are characterized by the local geology and groundwater conditions. Their choice for a specific project is primarily influenced by economic and soil conditions, and even under identical conditions, it can vary in different geographical locations.

As you may have noticed, the project has undergone some changes!

The name 'DigiPet' was just a placeholder (trademark owned by somebody else), and based on our recent lore-building, we have changed the name of the project to:

🌠 Wishlings 🌠

Wishlings is an in-development virtual pet game for mobile (PC planned eventually), with evolution and sandbox mechanics. We are inspired by Digimon World and Tamagotchi!

🌌The team:

Art: @tofupixel @ilta222

Programming: @luckycloverdev

Audio: @theogbaschfire

🌟 As for the world itself:

The game takes place in a dream / imagination land, which you first arrive at in your sleep. These creatures are basically imaginary friends, dreamed up by people all over the world. They can take many fantastical forms, but they all seem to be a bit magical.

They're going through some trouble right now, as Nightmare creatures are threatening their existence!

Treat them well, evolve them, train them and fight the Nightmare entities to bring peace back to the dream world. 🌠

🌟 The gameplay:

At first, you start with a dream egg. It will soon hatch into a baby monster! Treat it right, feed it and take care of it to influence how it grows up and evolves.

There are (so far) 5 evolution levels: Egg, Baby, Youth, Adult and Elder.

You can grow your own food and ingredients in your own backyard farm.

Cook the ingredients to make better meals. Different pets have different food preferences, some are carnivorous, some vegetarian!

Decorate your pet's habitat to influence it's personality and mood. We hope you will experiment a lot with the treatment of your pets to discover more evolutions! 🌠

🌟 Planned minigames:

Farming (growing food and ingredients)

Sky Fishing (catching food)

Walks (exercise your pet and find items)

Cooking (combine ingredients to make better food)

Battling (defeat enemy monsters to make your pet stronger and get items)

We are happy to have you here, it means so much that you're interested in the game!

And if you have any suggestions, or want to keep up with development more, please join our discord server! 🌠
