What are the advantages and disadvantages of the four types of swimming pool construction?



The construction of swimming pool can not be done simply by digging a puddle. It is a systematic project, including site planning, drawing design, infrastructure construction, equipment installation, swimming pool decoration and swimming pool trial operation.


Today, with the development of construction technology and material science, swimming pool construction technology has also undergone rapid changes, and many different swimming pool construction methods have emerged. According to different construction methods of swimming pools, swimming pools can be divided into the following four common types. These four types have their own advantages and disadvantages. When we build the swimming pool, we need to make a reasonable choice in combination with our own conditions.


1. Assembled swimming pool

Assembled swimming pool is a type of swimming pool construction that directly completes the customized production of standard components in the factory and uses a simple assembly method to implement assembly on site. This swimming pool construction method has the advantages of low cost and simple construction. Firstly, the ground is simply leveled to ensure the flat surface of the construction building; Secondly, the standard components produced by the factory are assembled on the flat ground and fixed after the assembly is completed; Finally, the assembled swimming pool is connected with pipes and swimming pool water treatment equipment, and the whole swimming pool is installed and ready for use. However, this type of swimming pool construction also has its disadvantages. The swimming pool is not durable and has poor durability.


2. Fiberglass swimming pool

The glass fiber swimming pool is prefabricated by the manufacturer at one time according to the design drawings with glass fiber. It is directly hoisted and placed into the pre excavated pit of appropriate size with a crane. After placement, the inlet and outlet water pipes and swimming pool water treatment equipment are connected. Finally, the gap between the swimming pool pit and the glass fiber swimming pool is backfilled and reinforced with concrete slab structure around. This swimming pool construction method fully balances the economy and durability, but it will be more troublesome for the prefabrication of the swimming pool with a large swimming pool area.


3. Vinyl lined swimming pool

After the construction team has dug the pit, the reinforced frame shall be set to support the whole swimming pool structure, and the necessary pipes and lines shall be installed. Then pour the concrete base. After the base is completely dry and solidified, finally install ethylene lining on the structural wall. The construction method of ethylene lined swimming pool is economical, but it wears fast and is not durable. This swimming pool construction method has another disadvantage - it is easy to blister, wrinkle and run.


4. Shotcrete swimming pool

At present, this construction method is the most common in the field of swimming pool construction. After digging the pit, the construction team installs the reinforced frame, then sprays the cement mortar around the frame with a sprayer, then applies smooth outer coating on the rough surface, and finally paves mosaic, ceramic tile, etc. The swimming pool built by the shotcrete swimming pool construction method is strong and durable, and can be built into any shape and size. But the cost is more expensive than the above three.


In addition to the above four swimming pool construction methods, there is also an uncommon swimming pool construction method - pouring concrete. This method is similar to the shotcrete type, but the concrete is poured on the wooden frame, which is much more difficult than the shotcrete type. With the increasing popularity of shotcrete, the construction method of pouring concrete swimming pool has withdrawn from the mainstream stage.


No matter what kind of swimming pool construction method, it can not be built by casually looking for a construction team. It requires a professional swimming pool construction team to construct according to the design drawings.
