Instruction
1. Decide on the pool sizes, its depth, forms and purpose. The outdoor pool can have rectangular, round or non-standard irregular shape. In advance choose bottom option: the pool with constant, variable depth (when the bottom goes down) or with ledges (when one part of the pool deep, and other small).
2. Choosing depth for the pool consider that at dispersion from 1.2 m to 1.8 m of the most optimum depth in 1.5 m is considered. Planning the reservoir size, consider the number of the people bathing in it at the same time. If you have big family and often there are guests, take care of that the bowl was as much as possible spacious. For fans of long heats the pool of any sizes will seem small therefore it will be good to supply it with the system of countercurrent which will allow to overcome big distances, leaving the swimmer on one place.
3. Choose the location of the pool on the seasonal dacha. Then study geophysics of this area. The best basis for bowl of reservoir are gravelisty, sandy, rocky, clayey and loamy grounds. The muddy or peat soil will not be suitable for foundation of the pool as, being deformed under loading, will cause cracking of bowl.
4. That during the winter period underground waters have not squeezed out bowl from the earth, on soil which well passes water, make reliable drainage.
5. Recently concrete basins for which facing use the ceramic tile having low absorption coefficient of water, mosaic from glass or the plastic foil which is not needing volume waterproofing became the most popular.
6. For construction of bowl of the reinforced concrete pool dig ditch of the necessary size and cover its bottom with sand layer. Then execute protective cement and sand screed and arrange external waterproofing.
7. Construct timbering and fill in concrete. Thickness of walls and bottom should not be less than 0, 25 m. In the conclusion execute the leveling cement and sand tie and internal waterproofing, having covered bowl surface with polymeric and cement elastic structure. The effect of "rubber bag" created with its help will make bowl of the pool waterproof.
8. Before filling by concrete wind initially provided openings for bookmark elements (nozzle, ground drainings, etc.) with water-repellent cords. If mortgage elements are established after production of bowl, insert into the special traffic jams which are taken away for this place.
