How to make a swimming pool for giving

A pool with azure water and a cooling cocktail in a stack of stakan - what can be desirable. Many of our compatriots have such a vacation associated with expensive passage resorts. But putting small efforts, you can organize cultural leisure to the highest class right on its plot. After all, the building of the pool is a completely satisfied task, even if you are not a professional builder. How to make a swimming pool for giving?

To begin with, it is recommended to carefully consider the location of the future pool:

It will be fine if at the ground site - clay, in case of breakdown of waterproofing and water leakage.
In addition, it is better to pick up a plot with a slope - it is so easier to decide on the placement of the drain system.
Check that tall trees do not grow nearby: their root system can spoil the design, feeling water. And if they are still available, then they must need them.
If there is a nearby lower trees, be prepared to constantly remove the leaves that have fallen into the pool bowl, and also do not be surprised that during the flowering period the water will get yellow color - this is the result of pollen.
Consider the prevailing direction of the wind on your site: It is desirable to move the air along the bowl so that the whole garbage flowing, leaves, branches nailed to one wall, where it is recommended to put a drain system.
Pay attention to the importance of the proximity of the water pipeline for the convenience of filling the pool.

Next should be done by the definition of the size of the pool:

During the construction of the swimming pool, the design of the rectangular, elongated form is preferred.
For relaxation, the family communication is better suited for a round bowl.
To feel free in the pool, it is important to choose the right depth. For the convenience of swimming, unfolding and jumping from the side, the depth of no more than one and a half meters is required.
In the case of the arrangement of the springboard, it is necessary to build a deeper pool - at least 2.3 meters. Or such a depth of the bowl should be achieved in the zone intended for diving, with the transition from the main size.
When building a pool for children, you follow that the depth does not exceed 0.5 meters to avoid health risk.
The most complex design is a combined swimming pool for swimming throughout the family, when different depths for children's and adult zones should be provided, separating them with a solid partition. It is necessary to put it starting from the bottom to prevent children to the territory of adults.
In addition, in the pool with transitions, the bottom of the bottom should be made by gentle, without sharp depth jumps, based on the security positions, so that the person does not accidentally get the water, skipping the border.

After determining the shape and size of the basin, swing on the site using the pegs for this purpose, which are driven through the corners of the bowl, and the rope, which is tensioning between them. With a non-standard pool, remember that it is recommended to drive them more often. Return from the rope about 1 meter - here you need to make the backbone, cutting off the ground and putting new pegs. Internal marking can be removed, because you will dig away from the new markup. Since work with the help of a shovel is tedious and takes away a lot of time, it is worth thinking about renting a loader for digging. At the same time, it is necessary to increase the selected depth of the pool by 50 cm. The walls must be digged under the tilt to the outside, which is 5 degrees to achieve greater the strength of the walls and prevent the collapse of the Earth. Clean the pit and misstate the ground.

After creating a pit, you can proceed to bookmark the bottom:

Before the fill of the concrete, do not forget to create a small slope of the bottom, which is about 3-5 centimeters per 1 m bottom, control the operation of the level. This is necessary for convenient water to drain when it is replaced.
Arrange a 30-centimeter sand pillow, moving to the perfect state, to avoid the distortion of the bottom in the future. As a rule, the pillow is a mixture of sand and rubble.
Next, you need to make a layer of waterproofing to worry about possible risks associated with design impairment and flooding. The most ordinary ruberoid is suitable, only fold it several times, withsting itching in 150-200 mm. Also for this purpose, bitumen, liquid rubber, PVC membranes are used. You can use coating waterproofing - polymer-cement formulations.
Put on the bottom on the waterproofing layer of stones, which has a thickness of 15-20 cm. Select a fraction at a level of 0.05-0.1 meters.
In order to do not crack the bottom in the soil, it should be strengthened with a steel ribbed rod, which has a class A3 and a diameter of 8-14 mm. Reinforced in 2 tiers. For the pool, which has an oval shape, prepare the reinforcement with a thickness of no more than 10 mm. To put something under the rod so that after the solution is covered, they found themselves in its middle.
Then you can pour down the bottom of concrete, trying to prevent the formation of emptiness with air. The layer of concrete should be 25 cm. We are waiting until it freezes.

Go to the stage of the walls of the walls:

To begin with, set the perimeter with a formwork made of boards - painted or polenic, to contain concrete fill. Also, moisture-resistant plywood is also used for the manufacture of formwork, especially this is true when creating bent forms of the pool.
It is necessary to put it, withsting a certain distance from the wall - 15-18 cm, as well as using the level, because the strength of the future pool depends on it.
To prevent the design of the construction under the pressure of a concrete solution, put the rigidity and strut ribs, withstanding the distance to half the meter, from the bar, which has a cross-section of 50x50.
With the arrangement of a small bowl for the preparation of a concrete solution, a concrete mixer can be used. In the case of large volumes of work, it is more expedient to order a ready-made material. The composition of the concrete mix, calculated for 1 m cubic meters. (2,400 kg): 325 kg of cement, 170 l of water, 625 kilograms of sand, 1250 kilograms rubble. To create a concrete pillow under the bowl, concrete B-25 is suitable, and give preference to hydraulic material, P-4, B-25, F-200, C-4.6 or C-500 cement.
Fill the concrete solution into the space that was formed between the earth wall and the installed formwork. To increase the strength of the fill, it is recommended to use the reinforcement grid, similar to the reinforcement in the manufacture of the pool bottom.
The surface is better to cover with some material to prevent the risk of destruction, since temperature fluctuations and moisture will be affected. It is advisable to periodically wet the walls with water.
The formwork is removed only after concrete walls have achieved maximum strength. Then the frozen surface is treated with cement milk.
Install the formwork near the other earth wall and pour a new portion of the concrete solution.
If you decide to provide stages for the pool, you should be made after the manufacture of the bowl. In this case, use formwork from plywood.
Then it is necessary to pay special attention to the grout of the bowl using a special grinder, and applying a waterproofing solution. Between its layers, be sure to route the reinforcing grid. Thoroughly process the seams formed between the bottom and walls, chips and cracks, as well as the place where communications are introduced.

To organize water drain, prepare an ordinary hose made of rubber. From the outside, it is necessary to proceed the earth to get to Niza. Further will continue the cement on the side where you made a slope. The hole should not be excessively large: the hose when attaching should be screwed up, and not free to enter. However, this hose can not be inserted until concrete completely freezes so that it does not pass. If necessary, you can use a metal tube installed in the concrete layer, which will help to disguise it.

To give the pool of an attractive completed view, it is customary to use such finishing materials such as ceramic tile, PVC film, mosaic. But in front of the finish finish, fill the pool with water and check the quality of waterproofing for 10 days: the water level should not change much, the opposite indicates a leakage, a small change is the result of evaporation. The useful functions will be a flow generator and massage, as well as structures such as stairs and handrails. Pavilion for the pool will help prevent garbage from entering water, leaves and branches and dirty precipitation.

We hope that our instruction will help you arrange all the points over "E,", build your dream pool at your dacha and brighten your leisure pleasant time. If you wish, you can buy a finished bowl for installation, and not to engage in concreting, but we will tell you about it another time.
