A supporting structure to help houses self-float, balance and self-stabilize from flooding water
A supporting structure is introduced for houses built in flood-prone areas. With the structure installed, the house or part of the house self-floats, balances and self-stabilizes when flood water rises, then safely descends to its original position when water retreats - without additional electrical or mechanical manoeuvrers. The supporting structure comprises an upper part for buoyancy generation, a lower part for stabilization, a supplementary component for fine tuning to ensure balance, and a supplementary component used for movement navigation.
