Swimming Pool Design Considerations
1) All Corners should be Round (Avoid
Sharp Edges)
2) Projection of any Kind of Not Allowed in
summing area.
3) Anti Skid Type of Flooring /Paving all
around the pool area.
4) Trees should not be planted near the
pool especially those which shed their
leaves seasonally.
5) Proper Orientation to avoid glare from
sunlight.

Types of Swimming Pools as per overflow Channels .

1) Scum Channel pool.

• Scum channel runs all
around the perimeter of the
pool.
• Balancing tank Required of
5-10% of pool capacity as
stand by Water.

.
2) Overflow System .
• Gravity System
• Overflow Channel on side
of pool
• More pipe work is
required
3) Skimmer pool
• Water level is below the edge
free boards
• Works only on suction/
pressure
• Skimmer unit is placed on
deeper side in the side wall @
in down wind direction .
• Fresh water is released
through eye ball inlets

3) Water proofing from two side
4) Tilling with special adessive.
5) Piping work in upvc, pvc, GI.
6) Other Accessories in stainless steel
7) Design for water pressure inside and out side
8) Proper Anchorage in Surround strata.
9) Hydraulic Valve Installed to release pressure from surrounding
water when pool is empty. ARCHITECT
10) Sub drainage system is designed for very heavy build up of
under ground water.

 Swimming Pool Facts.
1) Average depth of swimming pool is 1.2 to
1.5 M and diving pool is 3.0 to 5.0 M.
2) Area required per swimmer is 2.25 sq.m
3) Minimum Volume of water is required
3000 ltr./Swimmer.
4) For 100 swimmer area is required 225.0
sq.m
5) Padding pool for children's having depth
of 150 mm to 450mm
6) Olympic size swimming pool is of size
25MX 50M X1.8 M depth .
7) Semi Olympic size is 12.5 MX25MX1.8M
depth.
8) Water has to be clear ( black disc test)
9) Water should be odorless.
10) Water should have Ph value between
7.5m to 8.5m
11) 60% of water collected from surface &
intermediate level and 40% collected from
floor drains.
12) Filtration room should be as close to
the pool to save friction losses.
13) Slow rate filters – fine silica , large
aggregates at bottom ( 200ltr/min/sq.m)
14) High rate filters- Fine silica ( 700
ltr/min/sq.m)
15) Disinfection -Chlorination only after
sunset.
16) HTH Powder, ozonation, UV Rays. Etc.

 Pool installation: water treatment and recovery systems

• When designing a swimming pool project, it is necessary to provide a

suitable water filtration and purification system with recirculation
system and a compensation tank.

• Water recirculating system

• The water can be fed into the tank both from the walls and from the
bottom, provided that the water is homogenized.
 Water filtration systems
 Most skimmers on in-ground pools are built into its
upper sides, where the suction draws debris and traps
it. Most pool skimmers are accessed via the pool deck
area through a trap door or hatch of rectangular shape
and they compensate the need for a compensation
tank.
 A ‘deck level’ edge allows pool water to constantly
overflow the edges of the pool tank and drain into a
continuous channel set into the pool surround and to
be gathered into a compensation tank.
 The channel can be positioned at the pool edge or set
back behind a tiled margin for at least 60% of the pool
perimeter.
• This system involves more accurate filtration and also
allows effective aesthetic results, creating a ‘knife
edge’ pool effect.
 Pool surrounds and copings
Pool surrounds
For an adequate pool design it is also necessary to consider the
external paving, which must comply with adequate hygiene and
safety requirements.

Many the materials that can be used. Here are some:

 wood – teak, frassino, iroko and in general all those materials
that show a high resistance to humidity and bad weather
 marble – to confer an elegant appearance
 natural stone – aesthetically remarkable, absorbs water in
minimal quantities, allowing to have an anti-slip surface
 cement – a low cost, versatile material that does not require
much maintenance
 Cotto TILES – shows excellent resistance against the elements
and is a material resistant to the attack of moss and mold and
is non-slip material
 pebbles – used exclusively for aesthetic purposes, also ensuring
a non-slip surface.
• Copings

• Coping is an element of the design of in-ground pools which, by definition, is the

edging placed around the top edge of the pool. It has several functions – it separates
the structure from the decking and serves as a frame, protects the swimming
pool as well as protecting the surroundings from being damaged by water.

• Equipment

• Finally, pools can be equipped with many accessories, such as:

 ladder
 trampoline, in the pools that allow you to practice diving
 mushroom fountain (with jet effect nozzle)
 underwater lighting -placed under water to light up the inside of the pool
 hydromassage jets- which, by mixing air and water, provides targeted jets with a
massaging effect
 pool heating -that allows you to adjust the water temperature.
