A marine or land habitation system includes a habitable chamber and a monopole column supporting the habitable chamber at a first end of the monopole column. The monopole column includes a second end, opposite the first end, for mounting in the seabed or dry land. The habitable chamber is moveable with respect to the column both rotationally and vertically.

The disclosure relates to a prefabricated movable photosensitively adjustable solar bionic landscape pavilion capable of being disassembled and constructed quickly. The landscape pavilion comprises a support structure, a ceiling, a movable platform, a linkage system, a lighting system, and an energy system. The support structure is arranged at the center of the movable platforms and forms large-area shelter space with the ceiling. The ceiling may rotate around the support structure in the height direction of the support structure, so as to be unfolded or folded. The movable platform is a base of the landscape pavilion, undertakes the support structure and the ceiling above the movable platform, and meanwhile, provides fixing space for the linkage system, the lighting system, and the energy system.

A publicly accessible urban beach entertainment complex is disclosed, with a man-made tropical, pristine-clear lagoon as the centerpiece of the complex. The lagoon includes a surf feature and surrounding the lagoon are entertainment, educational, sports, and commercial facilities. The complex has a controlled public access and provides the look and feel of a tropical beach with clear waters and sandy beaches. In addition a method for efficiently utilizing facilities and land that are vacant, underutilized, have limited uses, or that are contiguous to or nearby recreational, educational, sports, or commercial venues is disclosed. The method providing a publicly accessible urban beach entertainment complex with a centerpiece man-made tropical-style pristine-clear lagoon having a surf feature. The method allows for generating revenue and increasing efficiency by pairing vacant sites, underutilized sites, limited use land, or sites that are contiguous to entertainment, educational, sports, and/or commercial venues with urban beach entertainment complexes. The complex preferably has a controlled public access, thereby allowing entrance upon payment of a fee.

Scale habitable units are disclosed for use in marine environments, such as the open sea, which are inexpensive to assemble and maintain, while providing habitable space.

An inflatable habitat using inflatable structures and necessary accessories offers secure permanent human settlement in an environment such as Mars with an air pressure below the earth's atmospheric pressure. Built upon a crater, the inflatable structure comprises various resilient multilayer roof segments integrated with segment frames to contain extreme internal inflation pressures to provide habitability, maintenance of thermal environment, and low-cost manufacturability using local resources. The roof of the inflatable structure is firmly secured along a rim and a floor of the crater through a wall anchor system and a dual internal roof anchor system to provide a durable structure against hostile weather conditions. A “smart design” using the wall anchor system allows the installation of an outer roof in parallel to the existing roof. Further, a magnetic radiation shield generated through roof power elements externally encloses the roof to facilitate optimal active protection against solar and/or cosmic radiations.

Marine habitation units are disclosed for use in the open sea. Each unit includes a habitable chamber; a column including a first end, and a second end, opposite the first end, the second end for mounting in a sea bed; and, and, a segment in communication with the habitable chamber, and the first end of the column. The segment is moveable both substantially vertically, and, rotatably, allowing the wherein the habitable chamber and the column to move substantially vertically, and, rotatably, with respect to each other.

The invention relates to methods for producing parallel-perpendicular spherical systems and can be used to assemble structures in engineering, construction or other arts. The method comprises the following operations: first, selecting of at least three identical elements; determining of at least one connection point on the first element; at least, determining of the connection point on the second element; connecting of the elements at certain points of the junction in such a way that the planes passing through the first element and the second element are perpendicular; selecting of the next element; determining of its points of intersection with first and second elements; connecting of the element with the first and second elements at the intersection points in such a way that the planes passing through the elements are mutually perpendicular, wherein meeting of the condition that the first element is parallel to the fourth one, the second element is parallel to the fifth one, and the third element is parallel to the sixth element. The claimed solution simplifies the assembly of three-dimensional objects and increases their reliability.

In building complexes of at least two buildings, the buildings each have a basic size in width direction and in length direction. The length and width of the building correspond to the basic size or to a multiple of this basic size. In buildings with at least two stories, in particular in a building complex, the building has at its bottom side at least one support that supports the building with formation of a venting space between the ground and the building bottom side. The venting space is part of an air circulation flowing about the building.

A system and method for primarily erecting curvilinear buildings using a plurality of interconnected structural tubes/sandwich panels is provided. Fabricating structural tubing comprises: connecting a fibrous and flexible lining to an inner surface of a flexible outer membrane, wherein the lining is saturated in a curable material that forms into a solid foam material when cured; and curing the curable material. Fabricating a sandwich panel comprises: connecting a first fibrous and flexible lining to an inner surface of a first flexible outer membrane, wherein the first lining is saturated in a curable material that forms into a solid foam when cured; connecting a second fibrous and flexible lining to an inner surface of a second flexible outer membrane, wherein the second lining is saturated in a curable material that forms into a solid foam when cured; and curing the curable material of the first lining and second linings.
