Our dojo had considered building one a few years back, I had advocated using used tyres or foam blocks, but we went with cork instead. We don't really have a sprung floor at all. There is a video of it on youtube that shows the construction, but I don't really recomend this type of construction if you are going to do judo/aikido etc.

ScottUK, the one you linked too doesnt look like the sprung ones I have seen or practiced on:
