By "dynamic implementation", I meant a definition of my maze with
access types to the components of my maze. A bit "a la" sparse
matrix. With that, the memory space is allocated only when a new
corridor is created at run time.
Opposed to this is a "static implementation" where the needed memory
space is allocated at compile time, hence using a maximum memory.
I'm not sure these terms are correct in English, they are a direct
translation from the terms we use in French. Does these definitions
help you understand what I wanted with my code?

It will meet my needs, but only because we reduced our needs.
Part of the definition of our project was to extend our
maze to a Nth dimension space, not just 3 dim... If we still
had to do it in a larger dimensional space, I think this solution
would be difficult to use.
Anyway, thanks a lot for your help.
