More Information
Summary:A floating territory made of a semi-rigid floating structure. The structure is able to follow the upward and downward movement of the waves. It can be installed as well close to the shores as in high sea, carrying a rigid structure. Said rigid structure acts like a bridge between the waves and provides a substantially stable surface for the installation of structures for human activity. Said rigid structure remains above the water level. The floating territory can be stabilized in position dynamically by propellers compensating the movement of the streams and/or winds, or by submersed weights attached to said rigid structure, or by pillars planted in the ground attached to said rigid structure. This leaves a vertical freedom of movement to follow the movement of the waves or the tides.
