For competition pools, an additional 1.5 cm should be taken into account to place the touchpads. Therefore, if we are trying to standardise a 25m pool, this should have a distance of 25 .03m between both ends.  \nNOTE: If using S9 blocks, plan enough space for them and the mortar.  \n2  \nWATERTIGHTNESS  \nThe watertightness must be guaranteed by the concrete tank. Any waterproofing treatment is only an additional guarantee of watertightness. Therefore the concrete used must be waterproof.  \nOne way of ensuring a pool is watertight is to use an expansive joint, such","cbCaimFGjJHew8zv","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaimFGjJHew8zv","pdf",3528266,36,"English","# NEW BUILD POOLS\n## Important construction information for making the tank\n### Measurements\n### Watertightness\n### Preparing the surfaces: screeds\n### Waterproofing and laying the ceramic tiles\n# RENOVATING POOLS\n## Conversion of a skimmer pool to a deck level pool\n## Renovating a pool without removing the old covering\n## Renovating a stainless steel swimming pool or spa\n## Renovating a polyester pool\n## Renovating a pool lined with pvc sheeting\n# POOL DECK AREA AND TERRACES\n## Important construction issues in the execution of a terrace\n## Flooring safety: anti-slip\n## Cleaning: cleaning protocol for anti-slip products\n## Installing the water collection gutter","[{\"question\":\"How should pool wall-to-wall measurements be determined in a new build?\",\"answer\":\"Account for the thickness of waterproofing, screed, cement glue, and ceramic tile at each wall.
