IN GROUND SWIMMING POOLS: SWIMMING POOL WITH OVERFLOW CHANNEL:

SWIMMING POOL 1. FIBERGLASS POOL : IN THIS TYPE OF SWIMMING POOL, FILTERED WATER ENTERS FROM MKSSS'S
THE BOTTOM EITHER FROM FLOOR OR WALL INLET AND AFTER DR. BHANUBEN NANAVATI
- MADE FROM FIBERGLASS-REINFORCED PLASTIC, WHICH HAS BEEN COLLEGE OF ARCHITECTURE
- A SWIMMING POOL IS A WATERTIGHT STRUCTURE WITH A HYDRAULIC MOLDED INTO A BASIN SHAPE. COMPLETELY FILLING, IT OVERFLOWS INTO A CHANNEL CALLED
SYSTEM FOR CIRCULATING WATER, A FILTRATION SYSTEM TO CLEAN FOR WOMEN
- INSTALLATION OF THE POOL: DIGGING OF APPROXIMATE SIZE PIT, OVERFLOW CHANNEL WHICH IS CONSTRUCTED ALONG WITH THE
DEBRIS, AND A SANITIZATION SYSTEM TO MAINTAIN WATER QUALITY. POOL PERIPHERY AT DECK LEVEL. FROM THE CHANNEL, THE WATER KARVENAGAR, PUNE,
LAYING OF THE NECESSARY PLUMBING, ADDING SOME SAND FILLER, MAHARASHTRA,
AND LOWERING THE PREFORMED POOL STRUCTURE INTO THE PIT. GOES TO THE BALANCING TANK, AND FROM THE BALANCING TANK, IT INDIA.
TYPES OF SWIMMING POOLS BASED ON ITS USE: GOES TO THE FILTER THROUGH RECIRCULATING PUMP SET, AND

2. VINYL-LINED POOL: THESE POOLS ARE A LOT LIKE ABOVE-GROUND FROM THE FILTER, IT COMES AGAIN INTO THE POOL FROM THE Fax: 91-20-25474437
1. PUBLIC: (CITY PUBLIC POOLS)- COMPETITIVE, RECREATIONAL POOLS, STRUCTURALLY, BUT THEY LOOK MORE LIKE CONVENTIONAL BOTTOM. Visit us: www.bnca.ac.in

2. SEMI-PUBLIC: (INSTITUTIONS, CLUBS, HOTELS, APARTMENTS)- COMPETITIVE, GENERAL NOTES:

3. FLOATING POOL: AN IN-GROUND SWIMMING POOL MAY SEEM LIKE A 1. Do not scale the drawing.
RECREATIONAL
SOLID, UNMOVABLE STRUCTURE, BUT IT IS ACTUALLY SORT OF LIKE A BOAT Written dimensions to be followed.
3. PRIVATE: (RESIDENTIAL)- RECREATIONAL – IT CAN FLOAT IN THE SURROUNDING GROUND WATER. TEACHER'S REMARKS
WHEN THE POOL IS EMPTY, THE GROUND WATER PRESSURE CAN ACTUALLY No. Date Remark
PUSH THE STRUCTURE UP OUT OF THE GROUND. THIS IS ONE OF THE
DEPTH OF SWIMMING POOLS: REASONS WHY POOLS ARE FILLED WITH WATER YEAR-ROUND – THERE
THE DEPTH OF SWIMMING POOL DEPENDS ON THE PURPOSE OF THE POOL NEEDS TO BE ROUGHLY EQUAL PRESSURE ON EACH SIDE OF THE POOL.
AND WHETHER IT IS OPEN TO THE PUBLIC OR STRICTLY FOR PRIVATE USE. MOST MODERN IN-GROUND POOLS HAVE A SPECIAL HYDROSTATIC VALVE
NEAR THE MAIN DRAIN TO GUARD AGAINST DAMAGE FROM GROUND WATER
- PRIVATE/CASUAL POOLS: 1.0M TO 2.0M PRESSURE. BASICALLY, IF THE GROUND WATER PRESSURE IS GREAT
- PUBLIC POOL DESIGNED FOR DIVING: 3.0M TO 5.0M IN THE DEEP END ENOUGH, IT WILL PUSH UP ON A SMALL FLOAT, WHICH OPENS THE VALVE.
- CHILDREN'S PLAY POOL: 30CM TO 1.2M BALANCING TANK IN A SWIMMING POOL:
CONVENTIONAL PROCESS OF CONSTRUCTION OF ‘IN GROUND’ POOLS: A BALANCE TANK IS USED IN POOLS THAT DO NOT USE SKIMMER BOXES. ITS
THE DEPTH OF DIVING SWIMMING POOL CAN BE:
- EXCAVATION BY MACHINE OR MAN POWER UP TO THE REQUIRED DEPTH. PRIMARY USE IS FOR THE STORAGE OF EXCESS WATER GENERATED FROM
- 1M HT SPRINGBOARD: 3.5M DEEP
- COMPACTION OF EXCAVATED AREA AND LEVELING ACCORDING TO THE THE DISPLACEMENT OF SWIMMERS' BODIES. A POOL WITH A BALANCE TANK
- 3M HT SPRINGBOARD: 5M DEEP
DEPTH CONSIDERING CONSTRUCTION MARGIN. MAINTAINS A CONSTANT DEPTH REGARDLESS OF HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE
- 10M HT SPRINGBOARD: 5M DEEP
- ENCLOSING THE AREA OF RAFT AND LEAN CONCRETE AREA OF THE POOL IN THE POOL. THE VOLUME OF THE BALANCING TANK SHOULD BE BETWEEN
WITH BRICK WORK TO FACILITATE IN LAYOUT OF SWIMMING POOL FLOOR 5 AND 10% OF THE VOLUME OF THE POOL.
AS WELL AS SWIMMING POOL WALL.
- LAYING OF LEAN CONCRETE UPON THE EXCAVATED AND PROPERLY
RAMMED SOIL COVERED BY A LAYER OF DPC.
- LAYING OF M.S. TOR STEEL REINFORCEMENT AS PER THE STRUCTURAL
DESIGN FOR FLOOR AS WELL AS WALL.
- ALL THE NECESSARY PLUMBING REQUIRED FOR THE MAIN DRAINS, INLETS
ETC IS LAID. LAYING OF RAFT CONCRETE UPON THE LEAN CONCRETE AND
BOTTOM FACE OF STEEL REINFORCEMENT. PROVIDING OF MIN 115MM
THICK BRICK WALL FOR SHUTTERING PURPOSE UP TO THE REQUIRED
HEIGHT. BEFORE CASTING THE RETAINING WALL, THE NECESSARY
PLUMBING FOR SKIMMERS/ OVERFLOW CHANNEL, CONDUITS FOR LIGHTS
TYPES OF SWIMMING POOLS BASED ON LOCATION: NOTES:
ETC ARE LAID.
1. ABOVE GROUND POOLS: SURGE TANK IN A SWIMMING POOL:
COMPONENTS OF A WORKING SWIMMING POOL:
- A=THESE POOLS ARE THE CHEAPEST CONSTRUCTION OPTION. A SURGE TANK IS A WATER-CONTAINING VESSEL THAT TAKES WATER FROM
- EASY TO BUILD. A TYPICAL SWIMMING POOL NEEDS THE FOLLOWING MAJOR COMPONENTS: A SWIMMING POOL PERIMETER GUTTER SYSTEM. SWIMMERS CREATE
- MOSTLY MADE FROM ORE-FABRICATED MATERIALS • A BASIN WAVES WHEN THEY ENTER A POOL, COMPETE, SWIM LAPS, EXERCISE, OR
• WATER SUPPLY SYSTEM (EYEBALL INLET) JUST PLAY. THE PERIMETER GUTTER SYSTEM CAPTURES THESE WAVES, OR
• REMOVAL SYSTEM SURGE OF WATER, SO THAT THEY DO NOT REBOUND BACK INTO THE POOL.
2. IN GROUND POOLS: • DRAINS
- THESE TYPES OF POOLS INVOLVE EXCAVATION AND BACKFILLING. • SKIMMERS/OVERFLOW CHANNELS
- VARIOUS ALTERNATIVE MATERIALS AND CONSTRUCTION METHODS SCALE: NORTH:
• A MOTORIZED PUMP
CAN BE USED FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF THIS POOL. • FILTRATION EQUIPMENT .
• RETURNS/RECIRCULATION SUBJECT:
3. ROOF TOP/PODIUM POOLS: • PLUMBING CONNECTING ALL OF THESE ELEMENTS - ABCS
- WHILE DESIGNING, THE WEIGHT OF THE POOL AND THE WATER IT • STRAINERS -
CONTAINS NEEDS TO BE CONSIDERED. • FLOW MEASUREMENT & CONTROL EQUIPMENT PROJECT/TOPIC NAME:
- RESIDENTIAL ROOF TOP INSTALLATIONS TEND TO BE SMALLER AND -
SHALLOWER DUE TO THESE CONCERNS. - SWIMMING POOL
- IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT ROOF TOP SWIMMING POOLS ARE TO BE -
CONSTRUCTED OF STAINLESS STEEL TO MINIMIZE WEIGHT AND TO -
AVOID LEAKAGES. DRAWING TITLE:
SKIMMERS IN A SWIMMING POOL: -
DECK LEVEL SWIMMING POOLS: -
A SKIMMER BOX IS EITHER A RECESSED OR WALL-MOUNTED BOX THAT IS -
- STATIC WATER IS AT OR NEAR TO SURROUNDING FLOOR LEVEL. USED TO COLLECT THE POOL WATER AND DIRECT IT THROUGH THE POOL'S -
- SHALLOW CHANNEL AROUND THE POOL INCREASES THE TURNOVER FILTERS ETC. VIA THE PUMP AND RECIRCULATION PIPEWORK. DRAWING NO.:
OF WATER VOLUME. THE NORMAL SWIMMING POOL WATER LEVEL FOR A SKIMMER BOX IS -
- THE BALANCE TANK, USUALLY BUILT UNDER THE FLOOR OF THE POOL APPROXIMATELY HALFWAY UP THE HEIGHT OF THE SKIMMER'S THROAT BNCA STAMP /
SURROUNDING REQUIRES ACCESS FOR MAINTENANCE PURPOSES. TEACHER'S SIGN:
WHEN NO BODY IS IN THE POOL. THIS IS SO THAT WHEN PEOPLE ENTER THE
- LARGE DIAMETER PIPE WORK HAS TO BE INSTALLED TO ENSURE THAT POOL AND THEIR DISPLACEMENT INCREASES THE WATER LEVEL, THE
THE SHALLOW CHANNELS DRAIN (BY GRAVITY)TO THE BALANCE TANK THE WATER IS PUMPED THROUGH THE FILTERING SYSTEM AND BACK OUT TO SKIMMER THROAT STAYS OPEN TO THE SURFACE OF THE WATER, SO
DURING PERIODS OF HIGH POOL ACTIVITY. RETURNS, INLET VALVES AROUND THE SIDE OF THE POOL. THIS SYSTEM SURFACE FILTRATION CAN CONTINUE.
INVOLVES A LOT OF SUCTION, BUT IF THE POOL IS BUILT AND OPERATED
CORRECTLY, THERE IS VIRTUALLY NO RISK OF SUCTION HOLDING SOMEBODY
AGAINST ONE OF THE DRAINS. THE ONLY WAY THE PLUMBING SYSTEM COULD STUDENTS NAME:
APPLY THIS SORT OF SUCTION IS IF THERE WERE ONLY ONE OPEN DRAIN. IN A - SHRAVANI MATHWAD
SAFE POOL, THERE ARE ALWAYS MULTIPLE MAIN DRAINS AS WELL AS
SEVERAL SKIMMER DRAINS, SO IF SOMEBODY OR SOMETHING BLOCKS ONE CLASS/DIVISION:
DRAIN, THE PUMPING SYSTEM WILL PULL WATER FROM ONE OF THE OTHER - FoY. B. ARCH
DRAINS. THIS ELIMINATES THE SUCTION ON THE BLOCKED DRAIN. - DIV- 'A'
