You can build a fort with anything you want or have. This could be branches, a tarp, old junk such as car hood, boards laying around, or even card board. It does not have to be permanent. You could also build one out of boards for a lumber store. Be careful if you do it that way or any way. Have a parent or a guardian help you.
Then you need to pick a place to put it. Where ever you would like. Put it under a tree, in the back yard or in a Forrest. Just some place you would like.
To build it you will need to have the right tools for the fort you are building. You can put it up any way you like. There is no standard way to build a fort. The fort you build should be yours. So build it to look like anything you want. A bunker, house, a survival shelter.
Remember you can build it out of anything you want to, or have. Get creative and go build a forth where you want, how you want and of what you want.
It took 8 years to build Fort Sumter.

Google "how to build wooden fort", or something similar. Use the plans to build the fort, but instead of building it on the ground, make the foundation a number of stilts planted several feet into the earth. Build the fort on top of the stilts. Be sure to build a ladder or stairs to get in.
The same way you build an 'adult fort', just down size it a little!!
