The structure of the cave consists of wooden beams to give a certain shape in the first place. When the beams are set, a layer of corrugated steel sheets comes on top of it, covering the empty spaces between the beams. At this point the beams together with the steel sheets will work as a shuttering. Last step is pouring the concrete to make a strong, stable structure to carry the weight of the projects above, such as EZ RDM, the Cave and Open House.

The wooden beams are 15 to 25 meters long, depending on the shape and positioning. Each beam has 400mm space in between. At first this looks like an overkill of many wooden beams, however these beams don't carry all the weight. When pouring the concrete, the steel sheets will have supporting structure underneath until the concrete is hard enough to carry its own weight.

The platform carries all the weight of the whole island. The system used on this platform supports the sustainable idea of the Learn and Play concept. The weight of the island is carried by many floating air columns. These columns make up and down movements as the waves hits them, therefore generating energy.

These spaces created above the "columns" provide an ideal space to plant trees so that the roots have enough space to grow.

In these cases, these spaces will be used as some kind of staircases for that project (more information about this on [[project27:frontpage|Open House]]).

Artificial islands could be constructed on groups of large concrete and steel pylons driven deep into the ocean floor for stability. These pylons would probably be very wide (up to 10 meters or more across) and assembled slowly multi-ton slice by multi-ton slice by deep ocean barges.
+
'''D. Park structure'''
  
−
The surface platform of the island would probably not be one huge, unified construction. Rather, it would be sectionalized with flexible joints between the individual platforms, to better accommodate, withstand, and even dampen the effects of waves hitting it and rolling under it. Like with modern skyscrapers and wind, an artificial island would have to have some flexibility and leeway against the forces constantly pushing on it in order to give it a greater overall stability. From above it could be made to look as it were all one conglomerated surface, but below the main occupied levels the illusion can be dispensed with.

Each platform section would also be composed of multiple levels, in order to fully utilize every cubic inch of the structure. Projecting from the underside would be large bottom-heavy pylons similar to what’s used on oil rigs to provide additional stability and buoyancy. The outer platform sections may also be further anchored into the sea floor with cables.

The structure for the paving consists of three layers. First a concrete slab (which is the concrete from the cave structure) with a layer of sand on top of it. On top of the sand comes the stone tiles. It is also possible to put some mortar underneath the tiles to stick it stronger on the sand.

The construction of the roads, bridges and the landscape forming masses will be similar to a construction type called monocoque. This technique supports the structural load by using the object's external skin. The technique can also be called the structural skin.

Accesability to and trough the project is the main focus of the design. Entering and leaving this design should not be seen just as a project on its own, but more like a finishing link between the other projects. The experience of the smooth and the continuous change while going from a nearby project to another is top priority.

To realise this vision is the positioning of the park and the routing very important. That's why all the routes come together at the center of the park. This forces the users unconsciously to use the park while going from project A to B and generate energy while doing so.

A. Cave structure

The structure of the cave consists of wooden beams to give a certain shape in the first place. When the beams are set, a layer of corrugated steel sheets comes on top of it, covering the empty spaces between the beams. At this point the beams together with the steel sheets will work as a shuttering. Last step is pouring the concrete to make a strong, stable structure to carry the weight of the projects above, such as EZ RDM, the Cave and Open House.

The wooden beams are 15 to 25 meters long, depending on the shape and positioning. Each beam has 400mm space in between. At first this looks like an overkill of many wooden beams, however these beams don't carry all the weight. When pouring the concrete, the steel sheets will have supporting structure underneath until the concrete is hard enough to carry its own weight.


B. Energy generating platform

The platform carries all the weight of the whole island. The system used on this platform supports the sustainable idea of the Learn and Play concept. The weight of the island is carried by many floating air columns. These columns make up and down movements as the waves hits them, therefore generating energy.

C. Spaces for trees or staircases for the project Open House

These spaces created above the "columns" provide an ideal space to plant trees so that the roots have enough space to grow. However some of these spaces will be used by the project Open House, which is on top of it. In these cases, these spaces will be used as some kind of staircases for that project (more information about this on Open House).
