Definition and context of structured pools

Frame pools are pools that have a rigid frame or support designed to support and maintain the shape of the pool shell. These structures can be made of different materials and are designed to guarantee the stability, durability and safety of the pool, whether for residential, commercial or recreational use. Unlike removable or inflatable pools, frame pools offer a more permanent and robust solution.

This type of pools have evolved with the development of new materials and construction techniques, allowing a wide variety of designs and adaptations to different terrains and needs. The structure plays a fundamental role both in the physical integrity of the pool and in the efficiency of its maintenance and operation.

reinforced concrete structure

Pools with a reinforced concrete structure are the most traditional and robust in the construction of permanent pools. They consist of a steel skeleton made up of reinforcing rods, over which concrete is poured to form the walls and floor of the pool. This structure provides great resistance to static and dynamic loads, as well as external agents such as water and ground pressure.

Reinforced concrete allows the pool to be molded into multiple shapes and sizes, offering flexibility in design. In addition, it is resistant to corrosion and adverse weather conditions, which contributes to a long service life. However, it requires correct waterproofing to prevent leaks and periodic maintenance to preserve its properties.

This type of structure is especially suitable for large pools or pools with custom features, such as built-in steps, ledges, or whirlpool areas.

Metal structure

Metal frame pools use galvanized steel or aluminum profiles to form the frame that supports the pool. These materials offer high mechanical resistance, lightness and ease of assembly, which significantly reduces construction times compared to concrete.
