The vessel and components of the pile block are suspended on said slab in a well of said structure. The building rests on the ground by means of two superimposed floors, namely an upper floor and a lower floor. The two floors are separated from one another by elastic supports, permitting a horizontal oscillatory displacement with respect to one another with a view of filtering the horizontal components of the earthquake with respect to the vessel. These elastic supports are in particular fretted elastomer supports.
