How can I build a hexadecimal block if I have all the needed information

Question

I am not able to figure out how to build a hexadecimal block, if I have all the needed information (Hash, Merkel Root, etc.).

Please use this JSON formatted block as reference: Block #506398

I understand the first 64 bytes are the block header, however what about the rest of the bytes?

Thanks For Your Help!

Here you have some articles about bitcoin block structure:

Please keep in mind that JSON is not compatible with bitcoin protocol. It is a easy to read representation of original block.
