Description

Specifies requirements for the structural design and construction of swimming pools constructed wholly or partly of either in-situ or pneumatically applied reinforced concrete. It applies to pools containing disinfected water with a pH not less than 6.5 and a salinity not greater than that of sea water, having a surface area not greater than 100 m(sup)2(/sup) and having an overall length not greater than 15 m.

Scope

This Standard sets out requirements for the structural design and construction of swimming pools constructed wholly or partly of either in situ or pneumatically applied reinforced concrete. The pools will normally contain disinfected water with a pH not less than 6.5 and a salinity not greater than sea water and have-(a) a surface area of not greater than 100 m2; and (b) an overall length not greater than 16.7 m. Such pools are hereinafter referred to as structures. These requirements may be applied to larger structures but may not be sufficient for such structures.
NOTES:
1 For pools using salt water chlorinators the salinity of the water, in general, is 6 000 ±4 000 mg/L compared with 37 000 mg/L for seawater.
2 Milligrams per litre is equivalent to parts per million.
3 The expected design life of small swimming pools is of the order of 20 years to 30 years.
4 This Standard may be applied to pools partially or wholly above ground provided that the supporting elements are designed in accordance with AS 3600 and regard is taken for shrinkage and movement.
5 The overall length is measured at the waterline and the limit of 16.7 m has been adopted to be in line with one-third Olympic-sized pools.
