The invention relates to designs of floating islands. A floating island is in the form of a three-dimensional structure which is partially submerged in water, said structure being comprised of floating means which display positive buoyancy, said means being connected to one another by means of a flexible non-stretching connection and a resilient damping connection. The floating means are adjacent to one another and at a horizontal distance from one another, and each means comprises a three-dimensional hollow structure having lateral walls, a bottom, and a roof that acts as a bearing surface located above water level, onto which surface island infrastructure objects are installed. Each floating means is configured in the form of a hollow hermetically-sealed unit which displays positive buoyancy and is in the shape of a right parallelepiped or a right prism having a height which is smaller than the length of any of the sides of the base; each wall, of each floating means, which is located opposite to the wall of an adjacent floating means, is connected to said wall by means of a flexible non-stretching connection and a resilient damping connection along the entire length of said wall, and the resilient damping connection is capable of damping in at least two mutually-perpendicular directions. |
