#ThowbackThursday to some spruce glulam pitched curved beams for a project This project was for a swimming pool on the Isle of Wight. In this photo, you can just about see the pool through the glulam frame! Glulam is a popular choice for buildings with pools, particularly public pools or schools. It performs better against the corrosive atmosphere in a pool than other materials. The chemicals and chlorine in the water attack the surface of whatever your frame is made of, and glulam tends to hold up much better than, say, steel against corrosion. #glulam #swimmingpool

How do we make sure that waterproofing systems withstand high water pressure, for example in swimming pools or canals? Of course, our colleagues at our various Technical Centers have a special test for this: the specimens need to withstand 1.5 bar for seven days to pass the test. Find a link to more information in the comments! #waterproofing #vinnapas #construction

Proof is in the pudding! The floating method achieves a much higher coverage rate than the notch method.
Adhesive coverage is crucial for the proper installation of glass mosaics, especially in demanding environments like swimming pools. Check out this short clip that demonstrates the difference in coverage when using different trowelling methods. The floating method (left side) creates a uniform bed thickness, ensuring full coverage for glass mosaics and translucent tiles. #tiling #mosaics #swimmingpool #tileinstallation #tilework #construction #laticrete LATICRETE Australia Pty Ltd.

This is using aluminum Composite panels as the ceiling for the swimming pool, which requires a fixed structure made of stainless steel. Reason: Choose materials that are easy to clean and maintain, moisture-proof, waterproof, anti-corrosion, and have good wear resistance. Due to the relatively humid environment of the swimming pool, it is easy to cause deformation and damage to the ceiling. Therefore, materials with these characteristics should be selected to ensure that the ceiling can maintain a good condition for a long time.

Waterproofing swimming pools is complex. The waterproofing needs to manage negative pressure (when the pool is empty) and positive pressure (when the pool is full). Delta's Technical Team favour using a combination of Koster NB1 (for its excellent ability to migrate into structures. From this we create a system capable of dealing with 13 bar of negative pressure and even greater (for positive pressure)). Additionally, the use of Koster NB Elastic is a great solution to ensuring the design has good levels of flexibility. A game changer for basement swimming pools or indeed sunken pools of any type. #SwimmingPoolWaterproofing #koster #NB1 #NBElastic #combinationtreatments #DeltaTechnical #constructionproducts #waterproofingsolutions #ProductOfTheDay

Q: What is the required horizontal clearance from an underground service cable to the edge of an in-ground pool? A. #NESC Rule 351C1 requires not less than five feet of horizontal clearance between an in-ground swimming pool or its auxiliary equipment and an underground power cable. Requirements for underground lines near above-ground pools are found in Rule 351C2. If you have an NESC question that you’d like us to answer, comment below! 👇 Grant Glaus, P.E.

2moWould be interested to understand how cross-grain movement is expressed in beams that taper and also curve. It’s usually straightforward to predict and where and how much movement will occur in timber, even in large engineered timber beams. Add in a tapered curve though and it’s much tougher to predict.
